Why is Fiber Optic faster than Copper?

Why is Fiber Optic faster than Copper?

It is a known fact that information travels faster down fiber optic cable than in copper. But did you ever asked WHY? Fiber optic technology sends pulses of light and data is carried along strands of glass or plastic, while the copper wires use electrical currents. In...

Defining the Multimode Fiber Optic Cables

Hair-thin strands of glass or plastic fiber are used to send light signals. The light travels to the core, the center of the fiber optic. The core it is surrounded by the cladding, an optical material that traps in the core, using the “total internal reflection”...
