An overview of Optical Fiber Cables/ Communication is given in the above Infographics. You can find a more in-depth technical information about OFC here. There is also a nice flash presentation outlining the basics of Optical Fiber Cables/ Communications here. What you can expect to read in this article though, are the advantages and dis-advantages/limitations of Optical Fiber Cables/ Communication (especially over Copper UTP Cables) for creating Computer Networks.

Even if many fibers run along side each other, the chances of cross talk (and hence signal loss) is very less, unlike Copper UTP Cables. Wire tapping with Optical Fiber Cables is more difficult. Optical Fiber Cables (Especially Passive Optical Networks) are used for providing high speed broadband to homes, these days (FTTH). Trouble shooting an Optical Fiber Network is possible with equipments like the OTDR Tester (Optical Time Domain Reflectometer). Using this, one could measure the optical power loss and locate the faults caused due to fiber breaks, connectors or splicing.
