Different materials: Most cablesfiber opticsThey are made of fiberglass, while network cables are made of copper wires.
Different transmission speeds: The best Category 7 cables in network cable have a transmission frequency of at least 500MHz and a transmission rate of 10G, while fiber optic is the fastest transmission medium currently available, which can reach 40G-100G.
Different transmission distances: the theoretical transmission distance of the network cables It is only 100 meters, while the transmission distance of optical fibers is very long and can transmit hundreds of kilometers without any relay equipment, so ordinary optical fibers are not damaged. It will have no effect on the transmission of a few hundred meters in the event of a break.
The cost of cabling is different: the production cost of fiber optics is much higher than that of network cable, and all interfaces combined with fiber optics must be optical bayonet, so the cost of using fiber optics is much higher than that of running network cable.
