Read moreIs latency better on fiber?
Light in a vacuum travels at 299,792,458 meters per second, which equates to a latency of 3.33 microseconds per kilometer (km) of path length. Light travels slower in fiber due to the fiber’s refractive index, which increases the latency to approximately 5 microseconds per km.
