Fiber-optic is transmitted using light so it is unaffected by electromagnetic intererence.

∙ 13y agoThe simple way to answer - Fibre optics use light to transmit and do not have/use any metallic medium where as 'Copper' cabling propagates an electrical signal, which is conductive and leaves it suceptable to pick up EMI.

Is twisted-pair cable is made up of plastic or glass fibers that transmit data at extremely fast speeds?
Twisted-pair cables are made out of copper, they are shielded with plastic to prevent electromagnetic interference but the actual cable is made out of copper.
What is function of coaxial cable?
coaxial cable has a solid copper or copper-clad-steel centre conductor surrounded by a non-conductive dielectric insulating material. The dielectric is surrounded by foil shield/s and/or copper braid/s which form the outer conductor and also shield against electromagnetic interference (EMI). The outer conductor/shield is encased in a PVC jacket.
What medium guarntees immunity from the interference?
Fiber Optic Cable
What is Significant of twisting in twisted pair cable?
y9ui u
What characteristic of UTP cable helps reduce the effects of interference?
the twisting of the wires in the cable
What is the significance of the twisting in twisted-pair cable?
The twisting in a twisted pair cable helps make the cable immune to electromagnetic interference. These cables are of two types: Shielded and unshielded twisted pair.
What cable is not subject to EMI electromagnetic interference and RFI Radio frequency interference?
-- galvanized steel cable -- dyed silk cable -- fiber-optic cable
What cable is NOT subject to electromagnetic interference or radio frequency interference?
Fiber-Optic
What cable type is immune to outside interference?
optical fibre
Which cable type provides a foil shielding to protect from outside electromagnetic interference?
coaxial cable
What causes interference when a cable is exposed to strong electromagnetic fields?
EMI
What are the security issues with coaxial cable?
cut or be disconnected.. electromagnetic interference
Which type of network cable is immune to electrical interference?
Fiber Optic

Helps to eliminate electromagnetic interference in a network cable?
The shielding braid in a coaxial cable has this function
What is the purpose of the braid in a coax cable?
The outer braiding of coaxial cable is a electromagnetic shield to protect against interference.
Why the cables are twisted?
This helps reduce electromagnetic interference. One side of the cable may be nearer the source; if the cable is not twisted, the effects may accumulate. If it is twisted, the pattern alternates between voltage in one direction, and voltage in the opposite direction, so the interference will be cancelled, not completely, but to a great extent.This helps reduce electromagnetic interference.
