Made of very thin strands of glass or plastic called optical fibers help carry the light signals regardless of bends or curves in the cable. Each cable can hold several optical fibers. Fiber uses light signals to carry internet data, which is better for data transmission over long distances than cable’s electrical signals. Fiber cables can carry much more bandwidth than similarly sized copper cables and are less prone to signal interference.
