The technology utilized for high-speed broadband internet access is primarily fiber optic technology. Fiber optics use glass or plastic fibers to transmit data as beams of light, enabling significantly higher bandwidth compared to traditional copper wires. This results in faster internet speeds, lower latency, and improved reliability. Fiber optic broadband supports a range of high-demand applications, such as streaming high-definition video and online gaming, and is becoming increasingly available in urban and suburban areas, helping to bridge the digital divide in communication services.
