WHY THE U.S. IS SEEING A FIBER OPTIC BOOM

Only 43% of U.S. households have access to fast, reliable fiber internet
connections. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law promises to bridge this digital
divide, with $65 billion dedicated to expanding access to broadband internet.
CNBC visited Corning, the world’s largest manufacturer of optical fiber and
North America’s largest producer of fiber optic cables to understand the
technology behind fiber-optic internet and how the market for fiber products is
changing.
