This list was initially developed as part of AfTerFibre, a project to map terrestrial fibre optic cable projects in Africa. The project was sponsored by Google Africa and, on completion, will be hosted by the UbuntuNet Alliance. All information gathered by the project will be publicly available under an open license.

A fiber-optic cable, also known as an optical-fiber cable, is an assembly similar to an electrical cable but containing one or more optical fibers that are used to carry light. The optical fiber elements are typically individually coated with plastic layers and contained in a protective tube suitable for the environment where the cable is used. In September 2012, NTT Japan demonstrated a single fiber cable that was able to transfer 1 per second (10 bits/s) over a distance of 50 kilometers. This list includes both standards-based and real-world technical cable types utilized in fiber-optic infrastructure, telecoms, enterprise, and outdoor applications.

Emergency connection, also known as cold splicing, uses mechanical and chemical methods to fix and bond two fibers together. Fiber termination refers to the process of preparing the end of a fiber optic cable to connect to another fiber, a device, or a network.

In, a single-mode optical fiber, also known as fundamental- or mono-mode, is an designed to carry only a single of light - the. Modes are the possible solutions of the for waves, which is obtained by combining and the boundary conditions.

The lightweight, ruggedness, and flexibility of fiber allow it to be easily installed in the substation. The substation receives electrical power from a generating plant like a solar or wind farm. At the transmission substation, the power is processed before it is distributed, as step-up transformers substantially increase the voltage to reduce the loss that would otherwise occur when the electricity. In the early days of protective relaying, it was recognized that communications between substations could improve relaying performance. by replacing many copper control cables with fiber-optic links for ala m and control signals.
