fibre optics tranfer data through total internal reflection so the data loss in negligable as comparied to metal wires available in the market.So the main use of optical fibre is "the optical fibre cables"

but there are other uses as well..

  1. It can be use as censors.
  2. It can also be used to transmit power using 'Photo voltiac cell'.
  3. It is used in most HD-televisions as digital audio optical connection.
  4. It can be used as Fuse.

Is fiber optics and Fiber optic sensors are same?

No, A fiber optic sensor is a sensor that uses optical fiber either as the sensing element ("intrinsic sensors"), or as a means of relaying signals from a remote sensor to the electronics that process the signals ("extrinsic sensors").


Do you need more than one fiber optic tool for different sized fiber optic cables?

Different fiber optic tools are used for different sized fiber optic cable maintenance. There are several different fiber optic tools, for example, there is the splicing fiber optic tool, test fiber optic tool, and cleaning fiber optic tool. The benefit of buying the same tool in different sizes may come in handy sometimes.

Can optic ADSL function with optical fiber?

Optic ADSL, or Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line, typically does not function with optical fiber as it is designed to work over traditional copper telephone lines. ADSL uses electrical signals transmitted over these copper lines to provide internet access. In contrast, fiber optic technology uses light signals transmitted through optical fibers, offering faster speeds and higher bandwidth. For fiber optic connections, technologies like FTTH (Fiber to the Home) or FTTC (Fiber to the Cabinet) are used instead of ADSL.
