Fibre broadband is an internet broadband connection that uses special glass fibers known as optical fibres. These optical fibers carry data in the form of light, whereas conventional copper cables use electrical signals.

Light signals travel through the optical fibre because of Total Internal Reflection (TIR). TIR is the phenomenon where the light gets reflected when travelling from one medium to another. The light must travel slowly in the first medium than in the second for the TIR to happen and it must hit the boundary of these two mediums at a specific angle.

Fiber broadbands for business

Due to the reliable high speeds provided by fibre broadbands, businesses can leverage it in various ways:

1. The high speed provided by fiber broadband can improve the productivity of the employees, which will help deliver better service to customers.
2. Higher reliability will improve business operations reducing downtime.
3. Higher bandwidth will improve the quality of service that will be offered to the customers. Employees can also share more files and conduct high-quality video conferencing easily.
4. Fibre optics provides low latency, which is necessary for remote access to specific applications. Moreover, employees can effortlessly collaborate on projects because of the reduced lag.
