Fibre Optic Connection - What is it?

Fibre Optics is a technology that uses glass (or plastic) threads (fibres) to transmit data. A fiber optic cable consists of a bundle of glass threads, each of which is capable of transmitting messages modulated onto light waves.

One of the greatest benefits to using optical light signals is the capacity and speed of such a system. Light travels much faster than an electrical system (as with a metal wire system), thereby allowing faster reception and delivery of information. Fiber optic systems have a much higher bandwidth capacity than copper or wireless. Fibre optic cable has no scrap value and therefore is less likely to be stolen.
