Describe refraction and reflection with respect to Fiber Optical Cable?
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.
To be perfectly technical, the answer to this question would have to be 'yes', but only because light and radio are the same physical phenomenon. The optical fiber only conducts the electromagnetic waves that we usually describe as "light". The waves that we normally describe as "radio" cannot pass through optical fiber.
Numerical aperture is used to describe the light gathering or light collecting ability of an optical fiber. It is a dimensionless number that defines the cone angle of light that can be accepted by the fiber. A higher numerical aperture indicates a greater ability to collect light.

One of the advantages of optical fiber is that it is NOT susceptible to cross-talk.
Usually, there is a laser diode that is optically coupled to the fiber.
An objective type of question on optical fiber is on that focuses on the integral part of fiber optic. A good question would be, " Why are optical fibers immune to EMI? "
no, its cylindrical
The optical fiber can be used both as unidirectional and bidirectional. The main application of optical fiber is in long-distance links, so there exists no need to employ them as unidirectional. For each direction different wavelengths are used to modulat the signals. At the same time many bidirectional signals can travel through the same optical fiber.
