Advantages of Fiber Optic Cable............................
Fiber optic cables provide superior quality transmissions compared to satellite and copper systems. Long distance telecommunications using satellite technology are prone to weak connections and echoing, which are greatly improved when optic fiber is used. Copper cables used for electrical transmission are much larger and heavier, have a much lower bandwidth capacity, are affected by electromagnetic interference and are prone to higher rates of loss over long distances. These problems are virtually eliminated with the use of fiber optic technology.
