1. Coaxial and
optical fiber
1.1. Definition
- Coaxial cable: is a type of electrical cable
consisting of an inner conductor surrounded by a
concentric conducting shield, with the two separated
by a dielectric (insulating material).
- - There are two main types of coaxial cable:
+Thin cable
+Thick cable
1.1. Definition
The structure, each coaxial cable consists of
four main components:
• Center conductor
• Dielectric layer
• Outer Conductor/Shield
• Outermost plastic coating
1.1. Definition
Fiber optic cable is a common type of
telecommunication cable used today. It is
made from compact glass or fiber optic
plastic. This optical fiber is used to transmit
light signals. The fiber optic cable has a
central conductor fiber, which is coated with
a liner to reflect the signals well.
1.2. Comparison of fiber optic cable with copper cable:
Fiber optic cable Coaxial cable
Speed Tall (over 100 GHz to PHz) Average (MHz to GHz)

Bandwidth In LANs, from 10Gbps to 100Gbps, depending on user’s In LANs, from about 2.5 Mbps (ARCnet) to 10
choice Mbps (Ethernet)

Distance Long (over 100meters to kilometers) Short

Classification Multimode Fiber (MMF), Single-mode Fiber (SMF) RG-58.50 ohm, RG-59.75 ohm, RG-62.93
ohm

Advantages -High bandwidth and increased transfer speed. -Cheap


-Resistance to electromagnetic interference. -Easy to install.
-Ability to transmit over longer distances. -Scalable
-Lack of signal loss at longer distances. -Rugged
-Low power requirements and cost-effectiveness. -Offers plenty of resistance to EMI.
-Hold up to 10mbps.

Disadvantages -Installation and maintenance challenges. The moment one cable fails, the entire

3. Application
Coaxial Cable:
- Cable Television: is a type of electrical cable
consisting of an inner conductor surrounded by
a concentric conducting shield, with the two
separated by a dielectric (insulating material).
- Data Transmission Networks: In LAN (Local
Area Network) environments, coaxial cables
may be used to connect network devices such
as computers, printers, and switches.
- Internet Transmission Networks: In Internet
transmission networks, coaxial cables may also
be used for Internet access connections.
3. Application
Optical Fiber Cable:
• High-Speed Data Transmission Networks: Optical fibers are often used in WAN (Wide Area
Network) and large-scale data transmission systems such as data centers.
• Video and Audio Signal Transmission: Optical fibers are also used to transmit high-resolution video
signals and digital audio in entertainment systems such as movie theaters and large-scale audio
systems for weddings or events.
• Optical Connectivity: In optical applications, such as optical sensors or medical devices, optical
fibers are used to transmit optical signals.
