Optical Fibre Communication Speed

Assertion (A): Optical fibre communication is fastest way of communication.
Reason (R): Optical interference between fibres is zero.
 
Both (A) & (R) are true and the (R) is the correct explanation of the (A)
Both (A) & (R) are true but the (R) is not the correct explanation of the (A)
(A) is true but (R) is false
Both (A) and (R) are false

Solution:

Optical fiber communication offers very high bandwidth and speed due to light's high frequency and minimal signal loss via total internal reflection. The design ensures minimal to effectively zero optical interference between fibers, which is crucial for maintaining signal integrity and enabling high data rates. Thus, both A and R are true, and R explains A.
