Wireless means there is no wire. If that's what they're going for then they are too cute by half. My fiber optic is not a clear wire. It has a reflective coating that forces the light to travel along a certain path.

The boundary layer (cladding) reflects the light along a specific path through the core. Regardless, my main point was that the fiber optic cable (nor the fiber strand(s) inside) is not "clear".
