Fiber or fiber optic technology is an effective cabled-based communication system. It is reliable, versatile, and widely used in many applications and industries. Optical fiber cabling is used to transfer information via pulses of light, which pass along one or more transparent plastic or glass pipes.

Fiber-optic cables transmit data via fast-traveling pulses of light. Another layer of glass, called “cladding,” is wrapped around the central fiber and causes light to repeatedly bounce off the walls of the cable rather than leak out at the edges, enabling the single to go further without attenuation
