The present disclosure relates generally to a system and method for increasing the reliability and data-rate transmission of information from a downhole device to the surface and from the surface to the downhole device. A fluid sampling system may comprise a downhole tool positionable in a wellbore and comprising a fluid testing chamber. The downhole tool may also comprise a light spectrum analysis unit disposed at a surface of the wellbore, wherein the light spectrum analysis unit comprises a detector. The downhole tool may further comprise a fiber optic cable for carrying light from the downhole tool to the light spectrum analysis unit, wherein the fiber optic cable is connected to the downhole tool and the light spectrum analysis unit.
