Fiber optics are used in photoelectrics as light pipes consisting of a bundle of small optical fibers (glass) or single strand (plastic) housed inside a flexible sheathing.

Fiber Optics - Transmission technology in which modulated light-wave signals, generated by a laser or LED, are propagated along a glass or plastic medium, and then demodulated to electrical signals by a light sensitive receiver.
So fiber optics allow us to get more light from the back of the telescope into the spectrograph and also let us save money on large specially built mirrors.
Fiber optics are thin transparent fibers that are used to transmit light quickly over long distances.

Fiber optics - Technology that involves sending laser light pulses via glass strands to transmit digital information.
Fiber Optics - The concept or method of using a laser to transmit infrared and visible light frequencies through a low-gloss glass fiber.
Fiber Optics - A general term describing the transmission of data by the use of a modulated light-wave signal, transmitted over glass or plastic medium, and received by a light-sensitive receiver.

Because fiber-optics are based entirely on beams of light, they are less susceptible to noise and interference than than other data-transfer mediums.
Fiber optics - A term that describes the technology used to transmit infrared and visible light frequencies through a hair-thin strand of glass fiber, with a laser or light-emitting diode.
Fiber Optics - A technology which uses light to transmit information from one point to another.
