- fiber needs repeaters too
-
"In contrast, fiber is truly digital. Just boost your laser power until you get a bright enough signal out the other end."
-----------------------------------------------
Fiber is definately a better medium than power lines but it's much more expensive. Fiber also needs repeaters and regenerators, you can't just boost power or you will burn out your laser, and yes there can be signal degredation in fiber too.
and if you do burn out a laser it probably costs more than one of these boxes they're putting on the transformers. - Posted by: IPingFreely Posted on: 07/07/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
