Fiber optic cables are network cables that are made out of a bundle of thin strands of glass.  This technology uses the glass fibers to transmit digital data.  The messages and data that are transmitted through these cables merge into a carrier signal and are adjusted to light waves.  The digital information that is carried through these lines is sent over long distances.

Firewire cables are designed to connect Firewire peripherals, external devices that are used to increase the potential of the communication system, to Firewire enabled computers.  When the connection is made by the firewire, between the two mechanisms it makes it easier for information to be shared and enables the data to be accessed at a faster pace.

Serial cables are those that connect serial devices to serial communication ports.  These cables can be made using D-submarine connectors depending on what is will be used for.  Also, the number of wires that are housed within the cable will vary depending on the circuits that are required. The length that the actual serial cable will end up being will depend on the individuality of the serial port receivers and transmitters.

Serial cables are those that connect serial devices to serial communication ports. These cables are able to transmit data using actual serial communication. In most cases a serial cable will use an RS-232 Standard which is for serial binary data signals that are used when linking Data Circuit-terminating Equipment and Data Terminal Equipment.
