One fiber-optic cable carries hundreds of thousands of voice or data circuits. These cables, or light guides, replace conventional coaxial cables and wire pairs. Fiber transmission facilities occupy far less physical volume for an equivalent transmission capacity. Optical fiber is also immune to electrical interference.
