Telecommunications and data processing networks have interconnected the world, enabling people to communicate easily even across long distances. The best example of this is the Internet – a complex network of local, metropolitan and wide-area networks (using either wired or wireless Ethernet) built on frame-based computer networking technologies.

At the physical layer, most wired Ethernet implementations use copper twisted-pair cables. More recent implementations (especially high-speed ones) use fiber optics. At the interface between these optical and electrical networks, glass-to-metal sealed high-frequency Transistor Outlines TO headers (TO PLUS^®) are equipped with TO window and lens caps to meet complex connection demands for high speed data processing.
