Fiber optic (FO) cables are based upon the concept of total internal reflection (TIR), which is achieved when the FO core and cladding have the same refractive indices. a. True
b. False

False

Explanation:

Though fiber active cable is based on the concept of internal reflection but it is achieved by refractive index which transmit data through fast traveling pulses of light. It has a layer of glass and insulating casing called “cladding,”and this is is wrapped around the central fiber thereby causing light to continuously bounce back from the walls of the Cable.
