FIBER OPTIC CABLE
In Fiber Optics a technology that uses glass or plastic threads (Fiber) to transmit data. A Fiber cable consist of a bundle of glass threads, each of them is capable of transmitting messages modulates onto light waves.

As shown in the pencil diagram the cable is protected by the outer jacket it protect cable from outer problems. Coating is here to protect the core part of the cable, the core is responsible to data transfer
and receive. The data exchange is done by light in this cable.
This cable has much greater bandwidth as compare to metal cables, also carry more data then metal cable, much thinner and lighter. Data can be transmitted digitally in this cable
The main disadvantage of fiber optic cable is that cable are expensive to install. In addition they are more fragile then wire and are difficult to splice.
