Fiber vs Copper

in #fiber4 years ago (edited)

choose the perfect solution for your cabling infrastructure is not an easy task. But once you be aware of the different properties of copper and fiber your solution may seem clearer. There are many advantages of fiber vs copper cable as explain below

Fiber vs Copper Data Bandwidth

Bandwidth is the main character of communication so here first we are going to compare fiber vs copper for bandwidth. Fiber-optic can support data bandwidth from 10 Mbps to 10 Gbps. But copper wire infrastructure and TDM technology; are limited. Because it was originally designed; for transmitting voice calls only, the demand for bandwidth wasn’t high. So it supports 10 Mbps to 100 Gbps data only.

Distance Covered

The distance is another important consideration for comparison between fiber vs copper. The signal travel on copper wire networks degrades with the length of the cable. So the distance covered by copper wire is very Short which is from 1 meter to 100 meters. But the signal travel on fiber optic cable does not degrade as the signal degrade in.......Read More
