Here is the list of considerations for using fiber optic instead of conventional transmission medium. 1.It is the best for long distance transmission because of its very small transition lose in a long distance connection without signal regeneration. 2.It immense to EMI ( electromagnetic interference ) and radio frequency interferences, it has no NEXT ( near ends cross talk ) problem, and it is thundering prevention. 3.It could carry much more information on its high bandwidth medium at high speed. 4.It provides high security connection for both data and voice communication. 5.It is in compact size and light weight for cabling, and it needs no upgrade on network cabling even the network speed is upgraded to Giga Hertz. Adopt this technology and get out of network cabling and maintenance troublesome easily. What do you think about your current network ?
