Technology

Which outcome occurs when impedance mismatches cause strong signal reflections in a long-distance telecommunications fiber?

A)Reduced signal-to-noise ratio
B)Increased data transmission speeds
C)Enhanced receiver sensitivity
D)Decreased chromatic dispersion

💡 Explanation

Reduced signal-to-noise occurs because Rayleigh scattering induces signal reflections, generating noise that competes with the intended signal; therefore error rates climb, rather than higher speeds, because the extraneous signals interfere.
