Fiber optic networks are used widely in telecommunications, CATV, and LANs. In telecom networks, fiber allows more phone conversations to be carried over a single pair of fibers than could be carried by thousands of copper pairs. Fiber is also used for CATV networks to improve reliability by reducing equipment failures. While fiber penetration is high for long distance LAN backbones, it is still low for connections to individual desks, though declining fiber costs and higher bandwidth needs are making fiber to the desktop more viable.
