Optical fibers have been used in the communication industry for a long time now. Depending upon the need and the distance that the information needs to be sent to, optical fibres can be divided on the basis of the material that is used, the refractive index and mode of the optical fiber.

On the basis of material, optical fibers are divided as glass optical fibers and plastic optical fibers.

On the basis of refractive index, they are categorized as step-index fiber and graded-index fiber.

On the basis of mode, they are categorized as single-mode fiber and multimode fiber.
