Fiber Optic vs Coaxial Cable – Which is Better? Suraj Kumar The Crazy Programmer

Devices like computers share or exchange data using signals or transmission technologies . These transmission technologies can be classified into two categories such as guided and unguided. In unguided media, the transmission happens without using any wire, and hence it is called wireless communication. Whereas in guided media, one needs to use the wires to transmit the data and the information from one device to another. And to do so, it uses three types of cables: coaxial, twisted pair, and fiber optic cable. So, in this article, we will understand coaxial and fiber optic cables and know some differences. What is Fiber Optic Cable? Fiber optic cable is the type of guided media transmission that is also called optical fiber cable. It is mainly the type of Ethernet wire that contains more optic wire, and using these, the data transmission happens. The fiber optic cables are 26000 times faster than the twisted pair cables to transmit the data. This wire has two types such as single-
