When do we use Fibre Optics technology? Fiber optics is the technology used to transmit the information as pulses of light through strands of fiber made of glass or plastic over long distances. Light travels down a fiber optic cable by bouncing off the walls of the cable repeatedly. Each light particle (photon) bounces down the pipe with continued internal mirror-like reflection. The light beam travels down the core of the cable. It is this technology that provides homes and businesses with fiber-optic internet, phone, and TV services. There are plenty of applications for fiber optic cable assemblies, and their uses are only growing. This technology is the backbone of military networking, medical imaging and laser practices, and private and public networking for cable and the internet. The optical fibers are difficult to splice, and there is a loss of light in the fiber due to scattering. They have a limited physical arc of cables. If you bend them too much, they will break.
