Re: What's fiber exactly?

said by rawgerz:

fios uses Ethernet or coax in homes. So it's not even pure fiber under your guideline.

I was talking to some people that I know (relatives and what not)..

Only somewhere in Texas do they get fiber all the way to the computer/tv set. To be exact: the type of cable connected to the computer/tv set is Firewire (IEEE 1394).

Please note:

#1 I can not tell where in Texas, or how much of Texas

#2 When other Cities/States will also use Firewire (IEEE 1394) to the computer/tv set.

#3 And I can tell you if which is which. It is Firewire (IEEE 1394) to the computer, Firewire (IEEE 1394) to the TV set OR BOTH.

#4 And the reason as to why: I do not recall OR I do not know.

Firewire isn't fibre optic cable?
