will77530 Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 so on newer vehicles they use a fiber optic cable, i am wondering what the benefits are ? Quote
Don_smokey Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 they are safer to connect to the internal computer... and i was told they work quicker (but not sure like i said "as i was told") peace Quote

Don_smokey Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 Zero chance of interference. It has a faster transfer rate but that's irrelevant for this. because it doesn't work like an regular wire but works with kind of light pulse is it not? Quote

Guest Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) iirc they are composed of very fine strands of glass that transmit pulses of light. Edited June 3, 2012 by Kranny Quote

n8ball2013 Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 ive repaired fiber runs for networks./ Its a motherfucker.
