The modern fiber-optic communication systems include an optical transmitter which helps to convert the electrical signal into an optical signal which is then sent into the optical fiber. In this technology one needs a cable that contains bundles of multiple optical fibers which is to be routed through underground buildings. Then one also needs many kinds of amplifiers. To run fiber-optic communication systems you will also need an optical receiver which is used to recover the signal as an electrical signal. Here you will notice that the information that is transmitted is digital information which is generated by computers, telephone and cable television companies.
