There are many benefits of fibre optic cabling that can really enhance the everyday life of many business owners and their employees and customers. Speed is a major factor and can sometimes mean make or break depending on what you are using it for. Fibre optic cabling can transmit data at speeds up to 10 gigabits per second which is almost 10x faster than normal copper wiring!

Cost efficient- fibre optic may be slightly higher in cost than your standard copper wires but the saving comes in the long run strategy of your cables. Fibre optic cabling lasts longer than standard copper cables and are far more reliable which means you won’t need as much maintenance or replacement cables as often, therefore saving money in the long run. 

Fibre optic cabling is lighter and thinner and can also withstand more pressure than copper cables. They are designed to be more efficient than copper because of their ability to withstand higher pressures whilst also needing less space around them which saves time and money in the long term. 

Fibre optic cables are a great new addition to the world of technology and they also offer flexibility for the future by using media converters which make it possible to incorporate fibre into existing networks.
