A type of wire-line transmission media that converts information into light pulses that travel down hollow glass tubes the diameter of a human hair. Fiber optic cables are used in broadband networks, and are capable of carrying an enormous amount of information in all its forms - sound, graphics, data, and video, or a multimedia combination thereof - with much greater speed, accuracy, and security than conventional copper wires and coaxial cables.
