Fibre Optic cable is quicker in transmitting the data rather than Normal cable .

This is because Optic cable conducts the Light wave as its speed is high the data transfer rate is also high.

Also, fiber is not subject to the adverse electrical effects of electrical/radio interference (EMI/RFI) or electrical damage that results in power electrical/lightening surges.
