FIBER V S COAX
FIBER
Fiber internet is the next evolution in broadband data. The relatively recent application of fiber optic cables for delivering high-speed internet is a game-changer for internet consumers. The glass core cable literally delivers information at the speed of light and does not rely on an electric current running through the line. This means you can enjoy a much faster and more reliable connection than was ever possible with a legacy coax internet service.
COAX
Coax, otherwise known as cable internet, is a widely used internet technology that has been delivering web access to homes and businesses for the last 25 years. This well-known cable is made of an insulated copper wire which means that it is dependent on electricity to work. It is susceptible to interruptions and performance overloads that can make daily tasks frustrating for home and business users alike.
FIBER
The inherently faster fiber connection doesn’t fail when there’s a storm and doesn’t slow down even when everyone on your street has decided to stream video at the same time. This faster, more reliable connection makes getting fiber internet service a wise decision.
COAX
If you have ever had cable internet service, then you are undoubtedly aware of how susceptible this old technology is to outages. It can be negatively impacted by inclement weather or even a high number of users resulting in service slowdowns and outages. That’s right: the more people on your block who subscribe to coax internet service, the slower your internet speeds become. You better hope it doesn’t rain!
FIBER
Fiber internet provides a private network for your home or business, making it far less susceptible to hackers. It sends its data through pulses of light that are sent along thin strands of glass fibers. This makes it extremely difficult to break into and this security makes it a great option for anyone interested in keeping their confidential information safe (which is pretty much everyone, right?).
COAX
An unfortunate fact about using coax to get your internet is that it’s pretty easy to hack into, placing your private information at risk. Coax transmits data through copper cables that criminals can easily tap into. This is obviously an important consideration from a security standpoint. Nobody wants their private data in the wrong hands.
FIBER
It’s hard not to love fiber internet, especially when compared to coax, its closest competitor. It never lags, even when everyone in the house is streaming video, downloading large files, and playing online video games at the same time. It also doesn’t slow down because of interference from other electrical devices because it delivers its speed with the power of light and not electricity.
COAX
For years coax was the go-to choice for broadband download and upload speeds, but with the rise of fiber connectivity, it has begun to fall out of favor. Not only does coax fail to achieve the same high speeds you get from a fiber connection, but it’s also a finicky service prone to slowdowns and outages when a fast internet connection is most needed, like during peak usage times, and in adverse weather conditions.
