Fiber Optic Systems

In recent years it has become apparent that fiber optics are steadily replacing copper wire as an appropriate means of communication signal transmission. Fiber optic systems are currently used most extensively as the transmission link between terrestrial hardwired systems. They span the long distances between local phone systems as well as other system users which include cable television services, university campuses, office buildings, industrial plants, and electric utility companies.
