Among the many advantages of fiber optic cables, their almost unlimited bandwidth, or what they can carry at any one time, has to be an outstanding consideration. Such cables allow corporations as well as families to cope with the surging volume of data that comes over today's networks. This feature is of utmost importance in an age when technological breakthroughs and wireless telemetry devices are becoming regular components; all contributed to modern society's ever increasing demand for data traffic. Broad bandwidth ensures that even as the total volume of data increases, there still will be enough spare capacity to meet anticipated requirements such as new forms of service that call for edge equipment which is high speed but low power. This flexibility--without sharing any bandwidth with conventional wires and thus no added costs--is an essential element in intelligent network design; it makes fiber optics a long-term investment for people in all walks of life.

One of the hallmarks of fiber optic cable specifications is to keep transmission quality constant over long distances Compare this situation with traditional copper cables, plagued with signal degradation at long distances while fiber optics can transport data for miles with perfect quality. This is particularly valuable for wide-area networks and global communications. It can be absolutely essential to maintain signal integrity under such circumstances. The upshot is a more consistently efficient network, with lower frequency of service calls and interruptions - a boon for both the end user's experience and our own productivity. For customers, this means stable performance and a network they can trust to meet their long-distance transmission needs.

Fiber optic cables are not affected by electromagnetic interference and all signals remain unaffected. This means unassailable stability in data transmission which is immune to any other source of secondary signal: If nearby power lines and a telephone set are both transmitting then the signal will become noisy--and ultimately useless. Such a feature is crucial in situations where electrical noise can disrupt data transmission. Hospitals, factories, or urban centers where there are many people living near each other all create electromagnetic disturbance which has to be avoided if we want data transmission unaffected and clear. The immunity to interference that fiber has ensures unambiguous data transmission, and is necessary for sensitive services as well as secure data exchange. For customers, this translates into modern communication systems which are not only more reliable but now also more secure in the face of possible disruptions. Thus, those customers are assured peace-of-mind and can base on the robustness they would expect.
