Fiber-optic cables can send data up to 1,000X faster than copper cables, making it easier to upload data, stream content, load websites and connect with others. Where as regular high-speed internet might have lower upload speeds vs download speeds, with fiber you get the same, lightning-fast speeds for upload and download. For business customers with multiple devices on your network running multiple applications, fiber-backed gig internet ensures your operations run smoother and faster as your business grows.
