Both T1 lines and fiber optic cables remain popular network infrastructure options for businesses today. T1 technology can operate on fiber optic cables, but T1 lines often refer to the implementation of T1 technology over the twisted wire copper cables used in telephony. While both of these technologies offer reliable and secure data transfer, they also come with their own set of benefits and drawbacks.
Let’s compare T1 lines and optical fiber cables and determine when they can be used.
Understanding T1 and Fiber Optic Connectivity
The speed of a single T1 line is 1.544 Mbps, and that of a fiber optic cable is 100 Petabits per second. T1 lines fall way behind fiber optic cables in terms of network speed.
