The Advantages of Rugged Fiber Optic Solutions in eVTOL Platform Design:
The ability to deliver improved performance in a smaller form factor is a key motivator for the use of fiber optic cables and connectors in eVTOL aircraft.

There are more reasons to consider rugged fiber optic solutions in eVTOL applications.
• Fibers are generally completely immune to electromagnetic interference (EMI), radio frequency interference (RFI), and electromagnetic pulses.
• Fiber isn’t subject to crosstalk, which is a concern with copper wire. Designers and manufacturers can take advantage of multiplexing and have signals that operate on different wavelengths or use different colors of light, at very high or very low speeds all on a single strand.
• Fiber has inherently low signal loss, so data can be transported over great distances.
• Fiber optic networks can carry data at rates of hundreds of gigabits per second.
• Fiber optic solutions are typically more compact and weigh a fraction of comparable electrical solutions that rely on copper wire.
