The article considers the possibility of measuring the temperature of cable transmission lines with the help of specially manufactured narrowed quartz optical fiber. The technology of manufacturing of narrowed optical fiber on a specially designed device is considered. The device of laboratory installation for revealing the expansion of optical fiber under the influence of temperature is considered. The influence of temperature on the laser beam deflection in the created quartz single-mode fiber is investigated.
