Currently, the colors of the optical fibers and fiber loose tube sheaths inside low-voltage engineering cables are generally identified using a full color spectrum. Natural colors ( also called original) are permitted as long as they do not affect identification. This Recommendation describes a single-mode optical fibre and cable which has zero-dispersion wavelength around 1310 nm and can be used in the 1310 nm and 1550 nm regions. Light travels down the cable due to total internal reflection. Optical. The underlying principle of a distributed fibre optic sensing system is to send laser pulses down the fibre and analyse the back-scattered radiation.
