ow are fiber optic cables and traditional metal-based wires similar and different?(1 point)

Responses


Both fiber optic and metal are used to transmit signals across long distances. However, fiber optic cables use light to carry signals making them much faster and higher quality.

Fiber optic and metal- based wires are used to transmit signals across long distances. However fiber optics use light to carry signals making them much faster and higher quality.

  • Both cable types transmit data, but in very different ways.

Differences between fiber optic cables and traditional metal-based wires

  1. In fiber optics, signal transmission is accomplished in the form of light pulses while in copper cable data is transmitted in the form of electrical impulses
  2. Since fiber optics relies on light instead of electricity to transmit data, transmission speed is fast while in copper cable, its slow.
  3. Over long distances, copper and fiber cables both experience signal loss, but this attenuation is much greater with copper. Over 100 meters, it is estimated that fiber loses only 3% of its signal strength, whereas copper loses 94% over the same distance. Thus fiber optics have more quality
  4. Fiber optics are thin and light while copper wires are thick and heavy

Thus we can conclude that both fiber optics and metal-based wires are used to transmit signals across long distances. However fiber optic cables use light to carry signals which makes them much faster and of higher quality.
