The cad features industry leading quality, compatibility, and reliability�for trouble-free operation. Fiber allows networks to operate over longer distances than copper (412 m/1250 ft half duplex; 2000 m/6,550 ft full duplex). Fiber is immune to "electrical noise", so it works well in electrically noisy environments. Fiber doesn't radiate any signals and is therefore not "tapable", so it works well high-security networks. Fiber is the cable of choice for new networks (either in existing or new buildings)�it copes better with high speed technologies, such as Gigabit Ethernet.
