  1. 2.3 Cables and Connectors TestOut Network Pro Fiber Optic

  2. Section Skill Overview • Select and install components to connect to a network that uses fiber optic media. TestOut Network Pro

  3. Key Terms • LED • WDM TestOut Network Pro

  4. Key Definitions • LED: A light-emitting diode is a two-lead semiconductor light source that emits visible light when an electric current passes through it. • WDM: Wave Division Multiplexing (WDM) joins several light wavelengths (colors) onto a single strand of fiber. TestOut Network Pro
