Optical fibers are circular dielectric wave-guides that can transport optical energy and information. Fiber optic cables are designed to provide high-speed, no-signal-loss, and EMI-free communication in telecommunication, powergrid, datacenter, broadband, and industrial applications. A micrometer, or micron (m), is a metric measurement used to measure the diameter of a fiber.
