Fibre optics factory C013 / 9193
Fibre optics factory. Worker using a laser to check the optical contact of an optical cable at a factory that produces fibre optic equipment. Optical fibres are made from flexible glass that has a high refractive index. Each fibre is then coated with an outer protective layer that has a low refractive index. This enables light to reflect of the walls of the fibre and travel its entire length with little or no absorption. Bundles of optical fibres may be used to carry images, or high volumes of data such as telephone conversations. Photographed in Kaliningrad, Russia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a worker in a fibre optics factory located in Kaliningrad, Russia. The image captures the moment when the worker is using a laser to meticulously check the optical contact of an optical cable. The factory specializes in producing cutting-edge fibre optic equipment that revolutionizes communication and data transmission. Fibre optics are made from flexible glass with a high refractive index, ensuring minimal light absorption as it travels through each coated fibre. This enables bundles of optical fibres to carry vast amounts of data or transmit crystal-clear images, such as telephone conversations. The technology behind these cables relies on total internal reflection, allowing light to bounce off the walls of the fibres without loss. In this photograph, we see a dedicated female technician diligently examining the connection between two cables using precision equipment and her expertise. Her focus highlights both her commitment to quality control and the crucial role humans play alongside advanced technological systems. The white protective gear worn by this Caucasian woman emphasizes her attention to detail while handling delicate electrical components essential for flawless signal transmission. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into the intricate world of telecommunications where every connection matters. Captured by RIA NOVOSTI/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this image serves as a testament to Russian innovation in fibre optics technology and its impact on global communication networks.
