Fiber optic Internet uses the technology that transmits data by sending light along thin glass fibers. This type of Internet connection is often called fiber internet, or just fiber. Fiber broadband is different from traditional cable internet, which transmits information by sending data over copper wires. Fiber has the potential to transmit data at faster speeds than DSL or cable-based internet. In particular, fiber internet providers now deliver the fast internet service, with speeds of up to 5 GIGs.
Some of the well known fiber internet providers are AT&T, Frontier, Verizon, and Xfinity.
