About Fiber Optics
A fiber optic is a thin cylinder of dielectric material, which is capable of transmitting messages modulated onto light waves. Fiber optic is a transparent, flexible fiber made up of thin strands of glass or plastic, which is slightly thicker in diameter than that of a human hair. One cable can have one strand or many strands. Each strand can carry almost 25,000 telephone calls, so an entire fiber optic cable can carry millions of calls.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global fiber optics market to grow at a CAGR of 11.45% during the period 2017-2021.
