| fiber-optic |
Glass or plastic fibers which allow the transmission of light impulses used to transmit voice, video, and computer data. Fiber-optics can carry much more information than traditional copper wires (used in analogue transmission) and are immune to electrical or radio interference. Fiber-optics are installed in cables, which is a difficult and expensive format to install.

| fiber-optic |
A cabling technology that uses pulses of light sent along a light-conducting fiber at the heart of the cable to transfer information from sender to receiver. Fiber-optic cable can send data in only one direction so two cables are required to permit any two network devices to exchange data in both directions.
