optical-fiber communication
Fiber-optics LANs can improve the communications inside a high-use area, reduce the bulk of copper cables, and in many cases eliminate congestion in computer rooms by remoting peripheral equipment.

Modern fiber-optic communication systems generally include optical transmitters that convert electrical signals into optical signals, optical fiber cables to carry the signal, optical amplifiers, and optical receivers to convert the signal back into an electrical signal. First developed in the 1970s, fiber-optics have revolutionized the industry and have played a major role in the advent of the. In 1880, and his assistant created a very early precursor to fiber-optic communications, the, at Bell's newly established in Because the effect of dispersion increases with the length of the fiber, a fiber transmission system is often characterized by its bandwidth–distance product, usually expressed in units of ·km.
