SIMPLY MEAN, THAT IS MORE EFFECTIVE AND SPEED,LOW COST,

when talking speed and relabllity Fiberoptic has a clear win over other ways of comunication in Networking such a

  1. Faster and less data loss rate with wide, greater bandwidth and extanded Range more then 20km on single mode.
  2. does not use copper twisted wires so it has immunity to EMI/RFI and lightning damage.
  3. No electric sparks and shock hazards so its safe to work with.
  4. Longer life expectancy than copper or coaxial cable.
  5. difficult to tap or hack.
  6. Thinner and litewight so its easy to spread and fit.

Optical fiber have much higher bandwidth than copper wire (large no of channel)

Long life coating protect it from rust.

Transmission speed is much higher tan coaxial cable.
