← TechnologyWhich risk increases with increasing signal frequency in long-distance fiber optic communication?
A)Modal dispersion degradation✓
B)Material wavelength stability
C)Photodiode linear distortion
D)Reduced laser pump efficiency
💡 Explanation
Increased signal frequency causes increased susceptibility to modal dispersion inside the silica of the fibers, because higher frequencies have smaller wavelengths, therefore travel faster, and arrive at different times, rather than maintaining pulse shape, creating signal degradation.
