Theory 
Optical fiber is used by many telecommunications companies to transmit telephone signals, Internet 
communication and cable television signals. Due to much lower attenuation and interference, optical 
fiber has large advantages over existing copper wire in long-distance, high-demand applications. 
However, infrastructure development within cities was relatively difficult and time-consuming, and 
fiber-optic systems were complex and expensive to install and operate. Due to these difficulties, 
fiber-optic communication systems have primarily been installed in long-distance applications, 
where they can be used to their full transmission capacity, offsetting the increased cost. The prices 
of fiber-optic communications have dropped considerably since 2000.
