Advantages of Fibre Optics


1. Fiber Supports Very High Bandwidth Levels
When it comes to bandwidth, no currently available technology is better than fiber – especially single mode fiber. Fiber optic cables provide more bandwidth to carry more data than copper cables of the same diameter.

2. Fiber is Inherently Secure

Fiber cables do not produce signals; connecting taps to a fiber cable to interrupt data transmission is extremely difficult.

3. Fiber is Intrinsically Safe

Because electricity isn’t involved with transferring data (data is transferred via light instead), the benefits of fiber include the fact that it’s safe to handle.

4. Fiber Withstands Water and Temperature Fluctuations

Fiber optic cable isn’t impacted by temperature changes, bad weather or moisture. For example, if it comes into contact with rainwater, communication goes on as usual. If lightning strikes a fiber cable, the surge of electricity will not be propagated because the fiber cable doesn’t contain any metallic components.

5. Fiber is Immune to EMI

Placing lots of electronic cables (which carry electric current) in a dense environment can create crosstalk between cables – which causes performance issues and data-transmission interruption.
