The durable fiber, which is protected by resistant materials, in combination with the wide range of sensor heads, makes optical fiber cables from SICK the right choice for numerous applications. Fiber optic sensor cables are the key enabler for real-time monitoring of temperature, strain, and acoustic signals across diverse and challenging environments. Depending on the application and the used technology standard fiber optic telecom cables are suitable, while other applications may. A fiber-optic sensor is a sensor that uses optical fiber either as the sensing element ("intrinsic sensors"), or as a means of relaying signals from a remote sensor to the electronics that process the signals ("extrinsic sensors"). Fibers have many uses in remote sensing.
