To be perfectly technical, the answer to this question would have to be 'yes', but
only because light and radio are the same physical phenomenon.
The optical fiber only conducts the electromagnetic waves that we usually describe as "light".
The waves that we normally describe as "radio" cannot pass through optical fiber.

Objective type question on optical fiber?
An objective type of question on optical fiber is on that focuses on the integral part of fiber optic. A good question would be, " Why are optical fibers immune to EMI? "
Is fiber optics and optical fiber same?
Yes, they are the exact same thing
What is different between optical fiber signal and electrical signal?
A fiber optical signal is based on the transfer of photons, while an electrical signal is based on the transfer of electrons.
What is meant by attenuation in Optical Fiber Communication?
When an optical signal of a given wavelength travels in the fiber it looses power. The amount of loss of power per Km length of fiber is called its attenuation. A=10*LOG10(POUT/PIN) dB/Km Where POuT is optical power after 1 Km PIN is th epower launched in the Fiber.
Application of optical fiber communication in railways?
To contact with the remote persons
How does fiber transmit data?
Optical fiber cables transmit light from one end to the other. The data is encoded into this light beam and travels down the fiber in this light. Obviously you need optical sensors at each end to get the information in and out.
What is the maximum voltage and current optical fiber can take?
Optical fibers transmit light, not electrical energy.
Which can transmit faster optical fiber or copper wire I read in an article that copper wire is faster than optical fiber?
Optical Fiber1. Photon has no mass, and it can travel faster than electron2. In multi-mode fiber, several channels of data can be transmitted at the same time
How can you use fiber optical cable for PC to PC communication?
You will need a special card for each PC that would convert the communication signals (electrical signals) into optical code. Then you would connect the optical ports of both machines together via fiber optic cable. Ideally one card (one per machine) would be able to transmit and receive optical code over two strands of fiber. One strand for transmit the other for receive.
What optical fiber is the lowest quality and are seldom sufficient to transmit light over long distances wall plate patch cable can be no longer than?
plastic optical fibers
How much data does a optical fiber cable transfer In Megabits per second please?
Optical fibre typically can transmit data at the rate of 1 Gigabit (1024 Megabits) per second
How many types of fibers are there?
There are two basic types of optical fiber.Multi Mode Optical FiberUsed to transmit many signals per fiber. (Multi Mode fibers are generally used for computer networks, lan applications).MultiMode Optical Fiber is produced as 50/125 and 62.5/125. (Core/Cladding diameter in microns.)Single Mode Optical FiberUsed to transmit one signal per fiber (Single Mode fibers are generally used for telephone and cable tv applications.)Single Mode Optical Fiber is produced as 8/125 and 9/125. (Core/Cladding diameter in microns.)
Different between fiber optical cable and copper cable?
Fiber optic cable is constructed out of glass or plastic, and uses light pulses to transmit data. Copper cable is made out of copper material (not glass or plastic) and uses electrical voltages to transmit signals.
How polymers can used as optical materials?
1) Plastic (Polymer) Optical Fiber is used to transmit signals down a flexible, plastic material. 2) Polycarbonate coatings are used on optical discs to prevent scratching the underlying surface that has the actual pits and lands.
Can electricity be transmitted through optical fibers?
No. Light is transmitted through optical fibers.
What is one example of microwaves?
One example of microwaves is a mobile phone, which uses microwaves to transmit the call or data to and from the phone masts.
What is the optical range of optical fiber?
40 GHz
