The Secret Life Of An (OC-1) – Optical Carrier 1
To explain how a fiber optic cable - the most common form of optical carrier - works, then imagine you are standing at one end of a long tunnel, and your friend is standing at the other. You can send him mores signals with your flashlight. You have the flashlight so you are the transmitter. He has a pencil and paper so he is the receiver. But what if there is a bend in the tunnel? He can't see you. However, imagine if the tunnel was coated with mirrors - get the picture? The tunnel is now the carrier.
