The type of cable that converts information into beams of light before transmission based on the principle of 'Total Internal Reflection' is the Fiber Optic Cable.

Here are the steps of how it works:

1. Conversion of Information: The first step in the process is the conversion of information (like voice, data, video, etc.) into electrical signals.

2. Modulation of Light: These electrical signals are then used to modulate a light source. The light source is typically a laser or a light-emitting diode (LED). The modulation causes the intensity of the light to vary in accordance with the information.

3. Transmission through the Fiber: The modulated light is then launched into the fiber optic cable. The light travels down the fiber optic cable by bouncing off the walls of the cable in a series of zig-zag bounces. This is the 'Total Internal Reflection' principle.

4. Reception and Conversion: At the receiving end, the light signal is converted back into electrical signals by a photodetector. The electrical signals are then processed to extract the original information.
