Increased Bandwidth: especially for long distance applications. Fiber optic cables transmit data over longer distances than copper without significant loss. 

Faster Upload and Download speeds: if your business depends on efficient handling of high quantities of data, such as financial transactions, large backups or multimedia content, upgrading your core network to fiber optic technology can dramatically increase the speed and efficiency of your day-to-day operations, with far less maintenance and additional equipment than traditional copper infrastructure. 

Improved Service Coverage on Longer Distances: the data transmitted via copper wiring degrades faster while it is carried through the cable. Fiber optic cabling, on the other hand, was originally designed for long haul transmissions, and signals are attenuated and degraded at a much lower rate. In some cases, you can send data for up to 40 Kilometers without any degradation. 

Lower Total Cost of Ownership: irrespective of the size of your company, investing in an optical fiber installation will pay for itself. The upfront cost may be higher, but fiber optic is cheaper to maintain, more durable and it requires less hardware. 

Lower Breakout Expenses: you get minimal splice and breakout expenses. 

Instant Scalability: existing tube routes can be interrupted at any location, allowing for rapid network upgrades. Even more, the costs and timescales for subsequent connections are significantly reduced. 

Sturdier Network: copper-based networks are known  to be very delicate. They can typically sustain around 25 pounds of pressure, while fiber networks can sustain up to 200 pounds without sustaining any damage.
