Fiber optic components are the backbone of many things you encounter every day: from home entertainment and office networks to commercial products like ATMs or retail kiosks.

Additionally, fiber optics are more secure because they are less susceptible to electromagnetic interference than other types of cables. This also makes them more reliable as they aren’t as likely to be damaged as easily by any interference with electromagnetic signals. 

The biggest environmental benefit of using these types of cables is that they don’t require the use of toxic chemicals that are used in the manufacture of traditional copper wires.

Fiber optic components include Fiber optic pigtails, fiber optic couplers, fiber optic adapters, fiber optic splitters, etc.

Fiber optic pigtails are used in single-mode applications. It is a short length of optical fiber with connectors on each end that forms an optical path between two mating connectors.

Fiber optic couplers can be used to combine light from two or more different input fibers into one output fiber or to combine light from one input fiber into two or more output fibers.

Fiber optic adapters can be used to connect two incompatible connectors together (e.g., SC and ST) or two incompatible cable types together (e.g., MM and SM).

Splitters are passive devices that redirect a portion of the light from an input fiber into multiple output fibers without any power loss.

Conclusion: 

Fiber optic cables are used in a huge amount of telecommunications and other applications due to their ability to transmit data over long distances with little loss of information. In fact, optical fiber is so good at transmitting data that it has become the primary means of transmitting data over long distances. It is more cost-effective than copper wire, and it allows for more bandwidth which can be used to send more information at once.
