The person speaking would repeat themselves, or the data would retransmit. Today we are dealing with IPTV signals and customers who will not tolerate pixelization, or momentary locking of the picture. All of the situations mentioned are cause for the customer to look for another carrier. Each situation could have been avoided if proper attention was given to the techniques used when preparing, installing, and maintaining fiber optic cables.
With that being said, why don't we review basic fiber optic splicer preparation? Jacket Strippers are used to remove the 1.6 - 3.0mm PVC outer jacket on simplex and duplex fiber cables. Serrated Kevlar Cutters will cut and trim the kevlar strength member directly beneath the jacket and Buffer Strippers will remove the acrylate (buffer) coating from the bare glass. A protective plastic coating is applied to the bare fiber after the drawing process, but prior to spooling. The most common coating is a UV-cured acrylate, which is applied in two layers, resulting in a nominal outside diameter of 250um for the coated fiber. The coating is highly engineered, providing protection against physical damage caused by environmental elements, such as temperature and humidity extremes, exposure to chemicals, point of stress... etc. while also minimizing optical loss.
Without it, the manufacturer would not be able to spool the fiber without breaking it. The 250um-coated fiber is the building block for many common fiber optic cable constructions. It is often used as is, especially when additional mechanical or environmental protection is not required, such as inside of optical devices or fusion splicer closures.

What is difference between "fiber duplex" and "fiber simplex"?
Not sure of your context here, but in general terms, simplex (sometimes known as half-duplex) means only one device communicating at any moment and duplex (sometimes known as full-duplex) means both devices communicating. So if you have two devices connected together using 100mbit Ethernet in simplex mode, then the maximum theoretical throughput between the two is 100mbit while in duplex mode it's 200mbit.
