Fiber Optics
By Communications Articles from EzineArticles.com | July 26, 2006
Fiber optics is a technology that uses optical fibers, which are long glass-like flexible strands roughly the diameter of a human hair. With the use of this latest technology, large amounts of data can be transmitted over long distances. The optical fibers are used to broadcast light signals and audio signals, producing distortion-free sound. In addition, fiber optics is useful in medical procedures (for internal inspection of the body), automobiles, and aircraft.
