All electromagnetic radiation can be used for communication, up to frequency of,

let's say, 3 x 1015 Hz (down to wavelength of, say, 100 x 10-9 m), in the ultraviolet.

Past that, higher frequencies (shorter wavelengths) are difficult to generate, modulate,

and control, are more hazardous to human exposure, and are absorbed in the atmosphere,

so they're not too practical for communication.

Radio waves are transmitted at one antenna, and received at another. Also, light is shone through a glass fiber (fiber optics), and received at the other end.
