Verizon FiOS Offers Amazing Technology

But why is the Verizon FiOS fiber optic network so amazing? Because Verizon has done something no company, and certainly no major communications carrier, has done before and has changed the technology that is used in the industry.

Before Verizon FiOS built this new 100% fiber optic network, the best materials available to build a spine for an entire communications system of phone service, TV service and Internet service was copper wires. These copper wires quickly were adopted by almost all of the companies in the industry and are still used today by both cable companies and satellite companies.

Verizon FiOS created the first network using cutting edge fiber optic cables to support its network, and that is what makes the FiOS network so extraordinary. Using fiber optic cables instead of copper wires changed the playing field of mass communications because fiber optics allows the network to move as much as 3 times faster than the maximum speed that is possible using copper wires.
