Telecommunication Cable
Telecommunications cables are a type of guided transmission mediums. Cables are usually known to transmit electric energy ( AC/ DC); however, cables in telecommunications fields are used to transmit electromagnetic waves; they are called ''electromagnetic wave guides''. Telecommunications are based on transmitting modulated waves/signals through a medium and receiving them. When the distance between the transmitter and receiver is far, or an unguided medium transmission is used, antennas are used; otherwise, telecommunications cables are used in guided medium transmission. Types There are several types of telecommunications cable: *transmission lines when electric signals are transmitted; *waveguides when electromagnetic waves are transmitted; *optical fibers when light signals are transmitted. Power Cables Telecommunications power cable products, as described in Telcordia iconectiv is a supplier of network planning and network management services to telecommunications pr ...

Submarine Communications Cables In The Mediterranean Sea
A submarine (or sub) is a watercraft capable of independent operation underwater. It differs from a submersible, which has more limited underwater capability. The term is also sometimes used historically or colloquially to refer to remotely operated vehicles and robots, as well as medium-sized or smaller vessels, such as the midget submarine and the wet sub. Submarines are referred to as ''boats'' rather than ''ships'' irrespective of their size. Although experimental submarines had been built earlier, submarine design took off during the 19th century, and they were adopted by several navies. They were first widely used during World War I (1914–1918), and are now used in many navies, large and small. Military uses include attacking enemy surface ships (merchant and military) or other submarines, and for aircraft carrier protection, blockade running, nuclear deterrence, reconnaissance, conventional land attack (for example, using a cruise missile), and covert insertion of spe ...
