Many power companies choose fiber optic cables for their monitoring and control systems. Data transmission statistics with performance measures are given for each type of communication. Fiber optic sensing technologies provide innovative solutions to enhance perimeter intrusion detection systems, improving overall security and monitoring capabilities. The OCH layer handles individual client signals; the OMS layer is the part between the OMU/ODU, aggregating multiple OCHs onto a common wavelength; and the OTS layer represents the physical layer of the optical network, and encompasses the actual optical fibers, transmission equipment, and line. Installation or repair of OPGW or OPPC should be left to experienced utility personnel except for splicing which may be done by fiber installation personnel on the ground, supervised by utility personnel.
