What is fiber internet?
Fiber internet, or fiber-optic internet, is a type of broadband connection that uses fiber-optic cables to transmit data. These cables are made of thin strands of glass or plastic that carry data as light signals, offering faster speeds and greater bandwidth compared to traditional copper cables.
How does fiber internet work?
Fiber internet works by sending data as pulses of light through fiber-optic cables. These cables are capable of carrying large amounts of data over long distances with minimal signal loss, providing high-speed internet access.
What are the benefits of fiber internet?
- Speed: Fiber internet offers incredibly high speeds, often ranging from 100 Mbps to 10 Gbps or more.
- Reliability: It is less susceptible to interference and signal degradation compared to other types of connections.
- Symmetrical Speeds: Many fiber plans offer equal upload and download speeds, which is beneficial for activities like video conferencing and uploading large files
- Future-Proof: Fiber networks can handle increasing data demands more easily than traditional networks.
How does fiber internet compare to other types of internet?
- DSL: DSL uses phone lines and generally offers slower speeds and less reliability compared to fiber.
- Cable: Cable internet uses coaxial cables and can be fast but may suffer from congestion during peak times.
- Satellite: Satellite internet can be slower and less reliable due to latency and weather conditions, whereas fiber offers superior performance.
