Fiber optics is quicker and has higher bandwidth but for long distances requires more infrastructure (but it is on the planet so is more easily repaired).
Satellite communications is slower with lower bandwidth and noticeable delays, the long range capability is greater but parts of the infrastructure (the satellites) are very expensive to replace and repair.

What is MSAN in reference to fiber optics?
MSAN is Multi-Service Access Node
Analog transmission using fiber optic system?
The transmission characteristic of a fiber optic channel is highly non-linear. It makes it a very bad medium for analog signals. Luckily it doesn't interfere with digital transmissions.
What is a core in a fiber optics?
A core in fiber optics is a single strand of fiber. It forms one half-duplex channel, where one transmitter can send data to one receiver. In order to form a full-duplex channel, two cores or strands are required. Many fiber optic cables contain many cores organized in many bundles.
Who is the father fiber optics?
It wasn't a one man effort, inventing fiber optics. Works were inspired by John Tyndall who first discovered light can travel an irregular path through glass. Alexander Graham Bell later contributed. Heinrich Lamm in 1930 put the first fiber optic cable together stranding cable together and sending a signal across the wire. There were many other people who helped improve it over the year. Al Gore is not the father of Fiber Optic cables, in case you were wondering.
What is meant by atenuation in fiber optics?
Attenuation in fiber means 'loss of optical power' suffered by the optical signal in fiber itself.
What if the difference between fiber optic and satellite communication?
Satellite versus Fiber Optics communication1- Fiber optics communication is quicker but satellite is slow in communication.2- Fiber Optics communication higher bandwidth but Satellite Lower Bandwidth.3- In case of any fault we can easily repair Fiber Optics but Satellite can not be repair.4- Fiber Optics initial Cast is low but Satellite is very High.5- Many People want to communication during jogging, driving, sailing and flying these all possible in Satellite Communication But Fiber Optics not use for them.6- Fiber Optics is Very costly for long range communication but Satellite is low for long range communication.ByMuhammad ShaoibUniversity of Management and Technology ,Lahore, Pakistan

What is the use of fiber optics?
Fiber optics is used for long distance communication due to its various advantages..
Why are GEO systems telecommunication currently being replaced by fiber optics?
The delay earth-GEO satellite-back to earth is always about 250 ms. This is very high compared to delays in fibre optics. Nothing can change this fact as (currently) the speed of light is the upper limit for the signal propagation speed and the distance of the GEOs is almost the circumference of the earth.
When did Charles Kao invent the fiber optics?
he invented fiber optics in 1955
How do you test fiber optics?
What are the common problems that can be incounter in testing fiber optics connectivity.
What is the technology merges computing with high speed communication?
Fiber optics, which allow data to flow @ the speed of light
Do you need to have cable tv to use a flat screen?
Not necessarily. You can use satellite, fiber optics, and a broadcast antenna. It depends on what is available in your area.
What 's the difference between satellite and terrestrial?
IN COMMUNICATIONS: Satellite uses satellite (orbiting) relay-stations in Space but Terrestrial uses cable or antenna-to-antenna signals based entirely on Earth to broadcast your television, radio or cell-phone :) ++++ IN ASTRONOMY: Terrestrial means Earth- (or planet-) bound; a Satellite is any natural or man-made object that orbits a planet. The Moon is a satellite of the Earth.
What are facts about fiber optics?
no
Why is there a need for an AD converter in fiber optics communication?
An analog-to-digital (AD) converter is needed in fiber optics communication to convert analog signals into digital format for processing and transmission. In digital fiber optic systems, signals are encoded as digital data bits for better noise immunity, signal integrity, and compatibility with digital processing equipment. The AD converter captures the analog signal and converts it into binary data that can be easily transmitted and interpreted in the digital domain.
