In this technology, a large number of telephone calls, television signals, and huge data resources can be carried simultaneously through full internal refraction through a transparent wire made of fine filament carrying light rays. Intercontinental fiber optic cable has been laid under the seafloor as a means of exchanging information. Recently, Bangladesh has completed all the preparations for the installation of fiber optic cable and has been connected to the information highway.
