The Advantages of Fiber Optics

Businesses all over the country have a wide variety of goals they would like to accomplish. However, there is one goal that every business would like to see: for profits to go up and for costs to go down. By upgrading your business’s cabling to fiber optics, you can see both of the goals realized almost instantly.

  • Increased Capacity - Compared to copper wires, optical fibers are notably thinner. Therefore, more fibers can be bundled together in a single cable. This will allow more signal to be channeled through the cable than your average copper wires.
  • No Interference - Electrical signals tend to interfere with each other, creating a poor connection in copper wiring. Fiber optics utilize light signals that do not interfere with each other. As a result, reception is clearer when you utilize the internet, phone, and television.
  • Less Power- Since the light signals in fiber optics do not interfere with each other and degrade less, a business can utilize lower-power transmitters instead of their high voltage counterparts.
  • Light & Flexible - Even though more optical fibers can fit in a single cable, the average weight is still less than that of copper wire cables. The cables themselves are also more flexible so they can be used in many pieces of technology such as flexible digital cameras.
  • Low Cost - Optical fibers are much cheaper than ordinary copper wires. These less expensive wires will save you and your service providers money.

Fiber optics are the future of cabling and every business should look to replace their current copper wires with it. When you need your current cabling replaced and restructured, contact Reliable Voice & Data Systems. To learn more, or to schedule a free estimate, give us a call at (877) 385-6657.
