Dark fiber is an underused optical fiber used in telecommunications and network communications. It's also known as black fiber or unlit fiber. Because no light pulses are transmitted through it, it is called dark. A dark fiber network can be built in a variety of ways. The dark fiber network provides scalability, reduced network latency, enhanced security, and reliability. Several large enterprises and organizations gain advantages such as increased network speed and network autonomy. Telecommunications, IT, ITES, and BFSI are the most common applications for these fibers. Furthermore, Dark Fiber Networks have numerous uses in the automobile, healthcare, and aerospace industries.
