Concept:
A fibre optic communication system consists of a light source, transmission medium, and detector.
Step 1: Source requirement
The source must generate optical signals (light).
Step 2: Common sources
LEDs and laser diodes (PN junction lasers) are used.
Step 3: Detector requirement
The detector must convert light into electrical signal.
Step 4: Common detectors
Photodiodes are widely used due to high sensitivity and speed.
Step 5: Conclusion
\[
\boxed{\text{PN junction laser and photodiode}}
\]
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{(A)}
\]
