Data Over Light

Data Over Light (DOL) is a technology that transmits digital information using light, typically through fiber optic cables. Instead of electrical signals, data is encoded into light pulses, allowing for extremely high-speed and high-capacity communication over long distances with minimal interference. This method is commonly used in internet infrastructure, data centers, and telecommunications because it enables rapid, reliable, and secure data transfer, significantly outperforming traditional copper wire transmissions.
