Mar 18, 2015 at 16:51 comment added Tomasz Kania (To a now-deleted response) that cannot be right. Every subspace of $\{0,1\}^\kappa$ is zero-dimensional. As Bill says, every compact Hausdorff space is a continuous image of a zero-dimensional space and each zero-dimensional space $X$ embeds into $\{0,1\}^\kappa$ (for $\kappa$ equal to the weight of $X$). See Engelking's General topology.
Mar 18, 2015 at 15:34 comment added Bill Johnson It is worth noting that every compact Hausdorff space is the continuous image of a closed subset of some product of $\{0,1\}$. You can find this in standard books; in particularly, Kelley's "General Topology".
