Fiber optic communication is a method of transmitting information from one place to another by sending pulses of light through an optical fiber. It is a technology that uses either glass or plastic threads to transmit data. Fiber Optic communications have a few advantages over the traditional metal communication lines. They can carry a lot more data and are less prone than metal cables to interference. They are also much thinner and lighter.
The disadvantages, however, of fiber optics is that the cables can be expensive to install. They are also more fragile than wire. These fiber optics are known to be a popular technology for local-area networks. It has been said that in the future almost all communications will employ fiber optics.
