Yep, fitting more information down the same physical path; but doing some pretty amazing math (& yes, physics) in the middle to make it work.
At the point we're at commercialization of terabit/sec down a single strand of glass about the same width as a hair, over thousands of kilometres.
POC has us at 22.9 petabits/sec on the same technology (but with a multi core cable). It blows me away how far we've come. I remember the first fibre link I ran in my first job; 622mbit/sec over 2km. This was at a time that 56K dialup was considered pretty neat.
