Fiber Optic Internet
Most internet services currently operate on copper wire cable networks that transfer information using electrical signals.
Fiber optic networks transfer information through strands of glass in a cable using the invisible light spectrum. Each cable has multiple strands, so like cars on a highway, fiber can support more traffic at higher speeds, allowing information to quickly move on and off the road.
