What is it?
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. Fiber optics are used long-distance and high-performance data networking, but it can be used for transmitting both illumination as well as communications. A variety of components make up a complete fiber optic lighting system, including the illuminator, light guide, port, connector, coupler, ferrule, and fixture.

How does it work?
Fiber projector or illuminator is a separate unit that feeds light through the fiber optic and is the only part of a fiber optic system that contains electricity.
We can use fiber optic light guides to provide a continual light supply that can be manipulated or directed in many different ways.
Which advantages does it show?
- Heat-free lighting: The fiber optic does not heat up, allowing it to be used near flammable or heat-sensitive material.
- Electrical safety: This type of lighting is very safe. One of its main characteristics is that the light source can be in a totally different place. This allows us to use it as underwater lighting. In addition, the voltage used by this type of lighting is very low.
- Durability.
- Colour variety: The same source allows us to obtain different colours of light. This is perfect for creating pre-programmed sequences or using fixed colours for chromotherapy.
- Simpler installation: It does not need to install so many electrical cables as other lighting systems.
- Easy Maintenance: When lighting hard to access areas like high ceilings and difficult light sources, the source can be in an easily accessible location and the fiber in any other place.
