is used by telecommunications companies to transmit telephone signals, Internet communication and cable television signals. Fiber-optic communication is a form of optical communication for transmitting information from one place to another by sending pulses of infrared or visible light through an optical fiber. The light is a form of carrier wave that is modulated to carry information. Canada produces 40% of the worlds optoelectronic products (Nortel, JDS Uniphase, Quebec Photonic Cluster.
