Which risk increases when imperfections limit a fibre optic cable's total internal reflection?

💡 Explanation

Increased imperfections cause scattering via Rayleigh scattering, a form of wave propagation, because they reduce the efficiency total internal reflection, therefore signal attenuation increases rather than signal integrity which would occur with uniform material.
