THE FOLLOWING ARE THE 15 REASONS OR ADVANTAGES OF OPTICAL FIBER

SPEED: Fiber optic networks operate at high speeds up into the gigabits, this explains the idea behind the concept of fiber optic internet
BANDWIDTH: large carrying capacity fibre optic broadband
DISTANCE: Signals can be transmitted further without needing to be “refreshed” or strengthened.though carefully planned and installed with appropriate types of fiber optic cables.
RESISTANCE: Greater resistance to electromagnetic noise such as radios, motors or other nearby cables.
MAINTENANCE: Fiber optic cables costs much less to maintain
SECURITY: It offer transmission security and void of unauthorized connection tapping
WEATHER FRIENDLY : once securely installed, it has no issue with weather related transmission issue
UPGRADABLE : Optical network is upgradable by increasing the capacity of the fiber electronics
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY :Fiber cable work with the old existing techology
NETWORK INTEGRATION: Integration of existing copper network with the optical network is a huge benefit of deploying fiber cable
APPLICATION AREAS ARE INCREASING: The deployment of fiber is almost every where.
• Fiber To The Home
• Metropolitan Telecom Network
• Long Distance Telecom Network
• Corporate LAN Backbone
• Campus LAN Backbone
• Industrial Link
• Data Center
• CCTV Surveillance Link
• Metropolitan Government Network
RATE OF DEPLOYMENT: In the history of deploying new technologies as they evolved, none is comparable to the rate of acceptability and deployment of optic fiber.
FAILURE RATE : The major reason for migration from one technology to the other is the failure and inability of such technology to meet the high need ad expectation of the users.. since the inception of Fiber optics, the failure rate is very minute once PROPERLY Installed
ELIMINATING SPARK HAZARDS : Fiber cable are passive and are terminated most of the time on passive equipment that involve no connection with the electricity, hence the hazard of sparks is eliminated
EASE OF INSTALLATION: The size, flexibility of the fiber cable makes installation easy
