You can call the company that installed the cables or any company that installs fiber optic cables. It's always a safe bet to call a professional before digging in a area where you think there may be cables buried.

How does light travels on a telephone call?

Light travels through what is fiber optic cabling. The cables are internally filled with long flexible tubes that are made of glass. The laser light travels through an individual glass tubing.


How does the phone system connect a call from Canada to China?

The answer to this question depends on if a cellular phone or a land line is being used. If it is a land line, your voice is transferred into digital information in bytes. These bytes are sent via a fiber-optic cable to your friend's phone. A cell phone works in a similar way, but instead of being sent through fiber-optic cables and computers between land lines, digital signals are sent to satellites and then sent back down to the other person's cell phone.


How do I know if my house has fiber optic equipment installed?

In some cases the connector on a fiber optic line coming into a home will look different, still round, but different. In many cases it may still be delivered through the coax cable, though. The best bet is to call your provider or visit dslreports.com to see what services you have.


What would prevent a light source from passing through fiber optic cable The light source is lit and light can be seen up to the fiber optic cable splice can water in the splice stop the lite?

One fiber optic strand is made of glass. It is quite small and the light actually passes through an area within the core of the strand. Data is pushed through (zeros and ones) and data can be 'piggy backed' with other data. Think of a prism and all the data is the colors in the prism. The computer systems will take all the data (colors) and condense them into one (white light) and push them through the fiber strand at the speed of light. At the other end of the fiber cable, the reverse is done and the data goes out to respected customers (ie Walmart, your bank or cell service). The fiber may or may not have a splice. If so, then the splice must be near perfect or the data will bounce (refract) out, much like dropping a pebble into a calm lake...the ripples will disturb the data. You couldn't have water in the splice, as it is fused together with heat. Fiber Optic Cable splicing is a technical skill and can be time-consuming. It may take one full day to simply splice 24 fibers. Fiber optic cables come in different groups. For example, telecom can have cables with as few as 12 fibers or as many as 244. So, call someone before you dig in your yard in case you hit one of these cables. The data lost and customers lost to the owner of the cable could run into the millions of dollars...and your homeowner's insurance may not cover you! Hope this helps!!It is expensive


What do you call the traveling of concentrated light through long tiny fibers of glass to carry sound?

That would be fiber-optic communication. Note: Sound is not carried; only light.
