Your question is a bit vauge, but I will try to answer it. A signal is transmitted via an infra-red LED or laser. The on and off pulsing of the light represents 1 and 0 in binary. There are 2 types of fiber, multi-mode and mono-mode. As for what information can be sent that depends on equipment you connect: video, voice, multimedia, remote-control, data (computer network, etc). In most company / office networks you will find Multi-Mode as it is easier and cheaper to install and purchase the parts for. It is limited to about 600-2000 meters. The speed limit is based on the hardware connected to the fiber and the distance, but you can do 10 Gigabits across 300+ M. You only see Mono-Mode (Single-Mode) fiber in the Telecom industry. It is very expensive to purchase, difficult to connect, and the equipment that uses it is also expensive. It can go about 10-60-1000+ KM. I have added some links to look at.

Which media suffers least attenuation?

Fiber optic cables suffer the least attenuation compared to other media such as copper cables. This is because light signals in fiber optic cables can travel longer distances without losing their strength, resulting in minimal signal loss. This makes fiber optic cables ideal for transmitting data over long distances.
