This is an odd if not obvious question to answer. If you go to http://www.telegeography.com/products/map_traffic/index.php you will see that there are millions of fiber optic cables running under the ocean, under the ground, in drainage pipes, and on telephone poles. You'll find fiber in the oddest places. Ever notice that 6 inch wide cut in the street that runs for miles? Fiber. Fiber is the backbone of all data, voice, telemetry, and other types of commutations. It's capacity to carry (depending on the type of fiber) data at light speed, millions of connections at one time is unsurpassed.. One simple strand of fiber can carry more than one stream of data. Different spectrums of light are utilized to maximize capacity. Typically one cable contains mutable fibers. Thus multiplying it's capacity. I seriously doubt that anyone cutting one under sea cable or even a terrestrial cable would cause much damage. The redundancy and nature of the internet and telecommunications world is (in many cases) over built. If one cable goes down, another takes over. The Internet was designed this way for military purposes. Before the Internet existed it was called ARPANET. It carried both military and public data. The network was split due to security issues. Now we have the Internet and Milnet. Many engineers believed that the deployment of fiber would not be rapid enough to feed the growth of the Internet and other networks. At one point Bill Gates was about to deploy over 800 LEO (low earth orbit) satellites. The fiber beat him and the project was shelved. Before fiber all we basically had was copper and satellites. Copper's ability to handle data pales in comparison to fiber. I hope this answered the question. Justin Petersen
1. Fusion splices: Use an arc to melt and connect two fibers. 2. Connectorised splices: Use various types of connectors like BNC, ST, etc. These can either be straight- or diagonal-cut fibers. 3. Epoxy splices: Here fibers are joined with the help of refractive index matching glue and guiding sleeves or jackets.
One of the advantages of optical fiber is that it is NOT susceptible to cross-talk.
optical cpupler is used is generally used in 3 instrument 1. optical switches 2. optical weight measurement instrument 3.optical temperature senses my minor project is optical weight measurement device. how we measure weight ? in optical couple r two arm one use as reference arm and another one is experimental arm. we put any weight on experimental arm than light intensity decrease by variation of this intensity we can measure weight.

Yes. The barometer is one of the most important tools in forecasting and studying weather.
Yes, a cable is typically one or more wires or optical fibers bound together in a common protective jacket or sheath. The purpose of the jacket or sheath is to protect the wires or fibers from external elements and provide insulation.
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.)

There are different online websites available the sell plastic optical fibers. Some of these websites include molex, Anchor Optics, Fiber Optics, and Fiber Optic Products.
An optical fiber cable is a cable containing one or more optical fibers. The optical fiber elements are typically individually coated with plastic layers and contained in a protective tube suitable for the environment where the cable will be deployed.
Fiber optics does not transmit sound. The long tiny fibers are long narrow strands of glass or a glass-like material generally referred to as optical fibers. Light travels inside these strands with little loss. Modulating the light makes the light into a signal and so the light can carry information. One common use of optical fibers to transmit information is the use to communicate phone calls, so sound is convered to a light signal and transmitted through optical fibers and at the other end it can be converted back into sound. Optical fibers do not transmit sound but transmit light that contains the information abut the sound. The phase "concentrated light" does not really apply to this process in an obvious way because "concentrated" is a term with meaning only in a comparative sense. Light is transmitted through optical fibers and carries digital information of all sorts.
Light travels in an endoscope through a series of optical fibers that transmit the light from the source at one end to the tip of the endoscope. These fibers guide the light through the instrument, allowing it to illuminate the target area inside the body. The reflected light is then transmitted back through the fibers to the eyepiece or camera for viewing by the user.
In 1959 lycra, arguably one of the most important and versatile of manmade fibers, was introduced and was originally referred to as Spandex or elatomerics, only to be renamed elastene in 1976.
A fusion splicer works by melting together two optical fibers to form one long fiber. This is done by the use of an electric arc and allows the light signals to pass from one fiber to another.
one of a set of modes of propagation having the same exponential variation of the field components along the longitudinal axis of a uniform transmission line, but having different configurations in any transverse cross-section
light is must for optical microscope while is not necessary for nonn optical one
All you need to do is google "Scary optical illusions and it should display a varied amount of websites that offer different illusions. The most common one is probably google images.
