Hi pupil here's your answer ::


➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡



\boxed{Co-axial\:Cable:}

☆ Co-axial cable consists of a core wire shielded by a dielectric insulator which is further covered by and Outer conductor and plastic sheath.

☆ Provides low bandwidth.

☆ It cannot be used for long distance transmissions.

☆ It gets affected by atmospheric and electromagnetic interferences.

☆ It can be tapped and hence data is not secure.



\boxed{Optical\:Fibre\:Cable:}

☆ Optical Fibre Cable consists of thin strands of Glass like material design to carry light.

☆ Provides very high bandwidth.

☆ It has complete immunity to atmospheric and electromagnetic disturbances.

☆ It cannot be tapped and hence data is secure.
