No, optical fibers are not opaque; they are made from transparent materials, typically glass or plastic, that allow light to pass through. These fibers utilize the principle of total internal reflection to transmit light signals over long distances with minimal loss. While glass fibers are transparent, they can be made opaque for specific applications, but standard optical fibers are designed to be clear to efficiently transmit data.
Good optical fiber is made of glass, but inexpensive fiber is sometimes made of plastic.
Study the optical transmission property of glass, to learn more. also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_fiber You might wish to refine the question to differentiate between optical bandwidth and data bandwidth. If a laser can be modulated and the beam directed through an optical fiber, then the data or the analog bandwidth is about equal to the modulation bandwidth capability of the laser in Hz per second.
Foam glass is made when air bubbles are put into the glass when it is melted . Fiber glass is glass that has been pulled into long strands.

Dear friend glass roving fiber is used in pultrusion process This are roving with rough finish to be impregneted in resin
Good optical fiber is made of glass, but inexpensive fiber is sometimes made of plastic.
An optical fiber is a glass or plastic fiber that carries light along its length. Fiber optics is the overlap of applied science and engineering concerned with the design and application of optical fibers.

optical fibers are strands of glass or plastic that use light to pass information. It is very fast and is not disturbed by electromagnetic fields.
false!
An optical fiber (or fibre) is a glass or plastic fiber that carries light along its length. Optical fibers are widely used in fiber-optic communications, which permits transmission over longer distances and at higher bandwidths (data rates) than other forms of communications
The main part of an optical fiber is a glass fiber (NOT hollow) within another glass fiber of another type of glass. Both types of glass have a different index of refraction; the signal travels through the inner glass fiber.
Mirrored glass
Glass, very pure glass.
No, fiber optics do not conduct electricity well. They use light to transmit data rather than electrical signals. The fiber optic cables are made of glass or plastic fibers which carry light signals, making them a good choice for high-speed data transmissions.
High purity glass strands.
The components described are typically used in optical fiber cables. Light-conducting glass fibers transmit data through the cable, surrounded by plastic fibers for strength and protection. The cladding further protects the fibers from external elements and damage.
