In recent years, the technology sector has seen substantial growth, with analysts expecting a compound growth rate of 12 percent by 2024. The internet's rapid growth rate has contributed to an increase in the need for expanded bandwidth.

Fremont, CA: Every day, the need for internet access continues to grow. The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has moved us to a more connected environment where individuals operate from their homes and control all activities through the internet. The rising demand for high-speed internet access has led to the increased popularity of fiber optic cables. Every day a vast amount of data is distributed across the internet, with data forms such as multimedia and video on the rise. This results in the need for a connectivity system that can accommodate large amounts of data and deliver it efficiently on a global scale.

The fiber optic cables relay information using light-based technology. The data is translated into a pulse of light, transmitted via a glass wire, and received at the other end

. Light can be transmitted at a much faster speed than standard copper cables, and as a result, fiber optic cables run at a considerably higher bandwidth.

Light in fiber optics also provides a range of safety advantages compared to conventional copper cables, which is one of the reasons why today's trend is rising. The emphasis on preserving confidential data is more critical than ever, and that is what the fiber optic cable offers. Glass does not conduct electricity and, as a result, cannot interfere with electrical current. This means that it is almost impossible to intercept any data being transmitted. Additionally, external factors such as lightning will not affect the fiber optic cable, reducing the chance of data loss during severe weather conditions.

The 5G network has been a much-discussed topic in recent years. The technology aims to revolutionize the communications industry by offering full digital connectivity. The introduction of a 5G network system is planned to advance VR and AR technology, driverless cars, and cloud computing significantly. Also, 5G transmitters will replace the Internet of Things hubs currently being designed to work alongside Wi-Fi routers. Fiber optic cables are a vital part of the 5G revolution, as cell models need a vital fiber optic cable backbone to provide a coherent internet experience.
