...he also said new fiber is at 90 volts, not 60 volts, so in the future cable could be used for phone lines.

Larry--

I really hate being the dumb guy on the thread, but y'all keep saying things that go against what I thought I knew. First it was impedence and cross channel inductance in copper twisted pairs, and now with fiber.

I thought fiber was plastic, and only conducted light, not electricity. Can you help and 'splain me how fiber can be "at 90 volts?"

Thanks for the help,

jim
