Hi,
I am currently studying computer networks and I have been reading about how data is transmitted via copper wires and fiber optics.
I understand the very basics of computers, data, logic gates and binary code.
However, currently I am struggling to wrap my head around how data can be transmitted by copper/light? It just does not make sense to me!
Can someone shed light on this?
In: Technology
Copper – electrical impulses that are decoded by the receiver on the other end and turned into a frame.
Fiber – laser/led light going down an extremely thin strand of glass. That light is decoded by the other end into a frame.
