How do fiber optics work with broadband?

You can never get enough fiber:

Getting broadband service and finding out what is broadband is only half the battle. You also have to figure out what's the best way to sync your computer up to the provider. You can go wired or wireless. If you do go the wired route your choices don't end there. You can go with fiber optics, coaxial cable, twisted pair cabling or even power lines. Fiber optic cable is made of thin strands of glass. Which makes it much thinner and lighter than their coaxial counterpart. This design allows it to have a greater bandwidth, plus experience less interference.
