The maximum data capacity of optical fiber cables can reach several terabits per second (Tbps) over long distances. Advances in technology, such as wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) and space division multiplexing (SDM), have significantly increased this capacity. Recent experiments have demonstrated data transmission rates exceeding 1 petabit per second (Pbps) in laboratory settings. However, practical implementations typically achieve capacities in the range of hundreds of terabits per second.

There is not a maximum capacity of data that can flow through the air from cell phone towers. The transmission units on the cell phone towers can be limited but the air does not have any limits.

An optical signal refers to information transmitted using light waves, typically through optical fibers or free space. This form of signaling is commonly used in telecommunications, where data is encoded in light pulses, enabling high-speed and high-capacity data transfer. Optical signals are characterized by their wavelength and frequency, which determine their properties and transmission capabilities.
Optical recording equipment is used to digitally store and retrieve data on optical discs such as CDs, DVDs, and Blu-ray discs. These discs use a laser to read and write data on a reflective surface, allowing for high-capacity storage of music, videos, software, and other digital content.
(a)- it is a read-only storage medium. Data once recorded, cannot be erased, and hence the optical disk cannot be reused. (b)- thd data access speed for optical disk is slower than magnetic disks; (c)- optical disk require a more complicated drive mechanism that magnetic disk.
use a laser to read and write data. Optical disks have very large storage capacity but they are not fast as hard disks. There are three basic types of optical disks: CD-ROM, WORM and erasable. DVD-ROM is higher- capacity disc
