Abstract: A light powered communications system. The light powered communications system includes an audio control center having at least one optical source and at least one optical receiver. The light powered communications system also includes a plurality of optically powered remote communication systems located remote from the audio control center, each of the optically powered remote communication systems being configured to receive an optical signal from the audio control center. The light powered communication system also includes at least one length of fiber optic cable between the audio control center and each of the optically powered remote communication systems.
