What is Optical fiber

Optical fiber is a thin, flexible, and transparent strand made of glass or plastic that is used to transmit digital information in the form of light pulses. It's designed to carry data over long distances at incredibly high speeds by utilizing the principle of total internal reflection. This technology is widely used for high-speed internet connections, telephone networks, cable television, and other telecommunications applications due to its ability to transmit data with minimal signal loss and electromagnetic interference.
