Transmission equipment

An essential piece of equipment in the telecommunication industry, base transceiver stations are essential for enabling wireless communication between a user and a network. A Base transceiver station consists of an antenna and the radio equipment necessary to communicate by radio with a Mobile Station. Everyone with a mobile phone or computer relies on base transceiver stations.

A local loop is the physical entity that connects customer to service provider by looping the customer’s premises right to the edge of the telecommunications service provider’s network. Every industry with a telecommunications infrastructure relies on the local loop (or circuit) to get connected.

Multiplexers increase the amount of data that can be sent over one network by selecting one of several analogue or digital input signals and pushing it along a line. Thanks to the multiplexer it’s possible for different signals to share just one device, which has really revolutionised not just the telecommunications industry but also the engineering and music business.

Optical fibers are replacing cooper wires in communication where they have been proven to be far superior in the transmitting over longer distances at higher bandwidth, with less interruptions from outside noise. Commonly used in telecommunications, optical fibers also service universities, office plants, industrial plant and utility companies.

In the communications and electronics engineering world, transmissions lines is a term used to define the cables that carry radio frequencies. Simply put, the transmission lines are used to connect a receiver and transmitter to an antenna. They are so common in the everyday home, that any time we plug an electrical device in the wall we are making use of transmission lines.
