La transmission de l'information se fait sous forme d'impulsions lumineuses sur fibre optique; c'est pourquoi l'infrastructure de fibre non raccordée est qualifiée de noire. On s'attend à ce que les entités qui construisent ou acquièrent de la fibre noire y rattachent leur propre composant électronique pour la transmission d'information, transformant ainsi la fibre noire en fibre en service. 3, record 1, French, - fibre%20noire

Pese a que existen dos grandes variedades de café, la arábica y la robusta, cada día aparecen nuevas preparaciones con sabores y aromas distintos. [...] La variedad arábica representa aproximadamente el 70% de la producción mundial de café y se considera como el de más alta calidad, por eso es generalmente más caro. [...] Es un café apreciado por sus calidades aromáticas y por su sabor suave y profundo. El contenido en cafeína del grano es relativamente bajo, entre un 0, 9% y un 1, 5%. 2, record 2, Spanish, - ar%C3%A1bica
