One thing I have never understood is why the power companies just don't run fiber along their transmission lines and run it into homes.
Ever sit a power supply brick near the phone line attached to your dial up modem? The interference from the power line would be bad to run fibre along the lines. theres a reason why this isnt done and it isnt a money factor.

Re: Interfearence free?

fiber optics is a different phenomenon than electromagnetism. maybe the repeaters or amplifiers, being electromagnetic devices, would be affected, but shouldn't the optic signals in the fiber be unaffected by any electromagnetic interference?
