How does fibre optic cable work?
Fibre optic cable works by carrying communication signals using pulses of light generated by small lasers or light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The cable consists of one or more strands, similar in size to a human hair. The centre of each strand is called the core, which is the pathway for light to travel. The core is surrounded by a layer of glass that reflects light inward to avoid loss of signal and allows the light to pass through bends in the cable.
