Extrinsic fiber-optic sensors use an optical fiber cable, normally a multimode one, to transmit modulated light from either a non-fiber optical sensor, or an electronic sensor connected to an optical transmitter. An example is the measurement of temperature inside aircraft jet engines by using a fiber to trans.

When a telecommunication cable is installed near very high-voltage transmission lines or railroad tracks electrified with alternating current, voltage is induced within the wire of a metal cable or in the metallic tension members of an optical fiber cable by either. One standard that has been developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Enginee s, Inc (IEEE) is 1222, "IEEE Standard for All-Dielectric. This Technical Brochure describes the induction phenomena (inductive, capacitive and conductive) that can lead to presence of voltage and currents on disconnected cable systems. OPAC (optical power attached cable) is a type of fiber optic cable that is installed by attaching to a host conductor along overhead power lines. X is photons per second, lambda is wavelength, light speed is c (speed of light is reduced significantly in fiber ~30% reduction from vacuum speed), h term is Planck constant.

A variation of the period of the grating inscripted in a fiber optic – induced by mechanical or thermal perturbation – causes a shift of the reflected peak wavelength, due to the related optical path length variation. Reflectance (which has also been called "back reflection" or optical return loss) of a connection is the amount of light that is reflected back up the fiber toward the source by light reflections off the interface of the polished end surface of the mated connectors and air. This is always measured in dB (decibels) and will be displayed as a negative number. Radiation absorption creates electronic excited states that are trapped by localized defects for extended periods of time. This makes it highly reliable even under severe environmental conditions, such as temperature, vibration, shock, water, and electrical noise conditions. The total reflected power can be due to connector back reflections, back scattering, etc.
