Best Answer

Using cable industry jargon, cable TV providers don't use optical fiber in the 'last mile.' This means that they use coaxial cable from the main nod in a neighborhood for the last stretch of their network to connect end users. The FIOS technology uses fiber optic cables up to 'the curb,' which means that the TV, phone, and internet signals coming to your home are carried for the most part by laser beams. Only the wiring inside the home is made up of coaxial cable. One laser bean (Verizon is using three for TV, Internet, and phone) is proven to have more capacity than any commonly used coaxial cable. It is believed that the capacity of optical fiber to carry data is almost limitless.
