Question

What are the types of optical fiber?

Answer 1

Answer:

There are three types of fiber optic cable commonly used: single mode, multimode and plastic optical fiber (POF). Transparent glass or plastic fibers which allow light to be guided from one end to the other with minimal loss.

Answer 2

Answer:

Fiber optics, or optical fiber, refers to the medium and the technology associated with the transmission of information as light pulses along a glass or plastic strand or fiber. ... A fiber optic cable can contain a varying number of these glass fibers -- from a few up to a couple hundred.

As mentioned in the article on the structure of optical fibers, the properties of data transmission via a fiber optic depend on the core. Hence, based on the differences in the structure of the core, there are three main types of optical fibers.

Single-mode optical fiber

Multimode optical fiber with stepped index

Multimode optical fiber with graded-index

Microstructured optical fibers are a new type of optical fibers that are different from the above three in a few areas. The core difference is the way in which light is controlled in single/multimode fibers and microstructured optical fibers.
