Internet at the Speed of Light

A fiber optic connection is another transmission technology that may be used to provide high-speed Internet access to some consumers. Fiber optics (optical fibers) are long, thin transparent fibers of glass or plastic about the diameter of a human hair and arranged in bundles called optical cables. They are enclosed by material in which Light-Emitting Diodes (LEDs) send light through the fiber to a detector that turns the light into an electrical signal. They are used to transmit light signals over long distances.
Optical fiber is lightweight, flexible, and the connection is extremely fast; however its availability and use are limited at this time.
