How Fiber Cabling Can Boost Business Video

The demand for fiber optic cabling has been rapidly growing for business applications. Two aspects of business that have increased significantly are video conferencing and live streaming. The following will discuss how using fiber cables can boost both.

 

Video for Business Uses

 

Driven by COVID-19, video conferencing has become commonplace in our professional and personal lives. The pandemic placed strict restrictions on human interactions, and video conferencing was used to interconnect with others remotely.

Typical experiences with video conferencing now range from business calls to e-medicine.

 

Events held for audiences were also restricted during the worldwide crisis. As a result, live streaming came into vogue, allowing events to be streamed to many individuals simultaneously without exposing them to disease.

 

Technical Issues

 

Video signals take up significant bandwidth, and video data packets are bulky. Bandwidth may not be sufficient when several devices connected to the network simultaneously play a video transmission. Inadequate bandwidth can result in buffering and low-quality video playback. These technical issues are more likely when copper cabling is used.

 

Fiber Optic Cables

 

Fiber optic cables provide higher bandwidth and less attenuation than copper cabling. Thus, fiber cabling implementation will result in more speed, less buffering, and significantly decreased signal loss for a network.

 

Video Conferencing & Streaming Benefits

 

Reliability and quality are essential for live video settings. Organizations heavily relying on video conferencing and live events will benefit from fiber optic cables.

 

Fiber optic cabling will make live video camera links more secure. In addition, video transmissions will be much better protected from adverse weather conditions.

 

As fiber optic cables can transmit data faster and with less attenuation than other types of cabling, video cameras can be positioned farther away.

 

Fiber links can provide more than 1,000 times as much bandwidth as copper. Thus, live video transmissions can be delivered high definition, producing a better product for audiences. They are creating a better results for video consumers.
