fiber optics
|
Thin filaments of glass through which light beams are transmitted over long distances and which can carry enormous amounts of data. Modulating l ight on thin strands of glass produces major benefits in high bandwidth, relatively low cost, low power consumption, small space needs, total insensitivity to electromagnetic interference, and great insensitivity to being bugged.

fiber
|
Fine glass strands, the thickness of a human hair. Coherent light systems which now can be modulated to carry broadband telecommunications multiplexing can be routed on these glass fibers.
