The 4 Stages of a Fiber Optic Network Build
Fiber optic technology is the fastest and most reliable telecommunications data delivery system available. It uses ultra-thin glass strands to send online data between devices with beams of light, resulting in quick download and upload times for crystal-clear video calls, lag-free gaming, seamless file transfers, and smooth video streaming.
While other providers may advertise their fiber network, they don't always tell the whole story. Their network may use a combination of fiber lines from their central office to a neighborhood distribution point which then uses the same old coaxial cables to get the signal to customer homes. Often, these cable connections are split between multiple addresses which can result in slower speeds as it is not a dedicated fiber connection right to the individual subscriber.
