Fiber Means Superior Reliability and Stability.

Unlike a traditional copper cable, fiber optic networks are built with cables that are more durable, and less susceptible to weather, interference, outages, and signal loss. That means fiber is the most reliable internet period.

Fiber-optic technology is designed from the ground up for superior reliability.

Higher bandwidth capacity

Lower signal loss
than copper

No electromagnetic interference

Extremely durable
cables

Higher bandwidth capacity and scalability.

Fiber optic cables are very different from copper cables. Each cable can contain hundreds of strands, each capable of being split multiple times, allowing the network to expand exponentially with much less infrastructure cost. This allows Surf to serve more homes on the same network with much larger amounts of fiber data served to each home.

Fiber optic cables also have a much higher bandwidth capacity than copper cables. This means that fiber optic internet can support higher speeds and more devices simultaneously without experiencing congestion or slowdowns.

Cable built to withstand the elements

Protected by several layers of sturdy materials, strengthened with Kevlar, and protected by durable PVC conduit, fiber optic cables are designed to withstand the elements.

Unlike copper cables, extreme weather conditions, such as snow, wind, and heavy rain, your fiber optic internet is less likely to experience outages due to weather-related events.

A brand new network with a superior design.

Our network is brand new, rather than decades old. It has been carefully designed and planned to ensure that every home has the best possible internet experience. From the initial design phase to the final installation, we take great care to ensure that our network is up to the highest standards.

No electromagnetic interference.

Fiber optic cables are made of glass or plastic and transmit data using light. This makes them immune to electromagnetic interference, which can disrupt signals in copper cables. Copper cables are susceptible to disruptions from nearby electrical equipment, lightning strikes, and other sources of electromagnetic interference.

This can cause data loss or corruption, and can even damage the cable itself. Fiber optic cables are much more resistant to these types of interference, making them a more reliable choice for long-distance data transmission.

Lower signal loss than copper, means a more stable experience.

Fiber optic cables experience less signal loss than copper cables, especially over longer distances. This means that data transmitted over fiber optic cables can travel farther before needing to be amplified, reducing the likelihood of signal degradation. 

Additionally, fiber optic cables can be installed with significantly less infrastructure than other network types, allowing more homes to be connected to the network, while enabled extremely low latency, and high speed. Critical components to data-intensive activities like streaming and gaming.
