Difference between communication cable and optical cable
The material is different. The cable is made of metal material (mostly copper and aluminum), and the cable is made of glass fiber as conductor.
Communication cable is the cable rope similar by a few or several groups of at least two wires [Each] twisted the mutually insulated wires between each group, and often around a central twisted, the bread has a height of cover insulation; especially the submarine cable.
There is a difference in scope of application. Cables are now used for energy transmission and low-end data transmission (e.g., telephone). Fiber optic cables are mostly used for data
There is a difference between the transmitted signals. The cable carries electrical signals. Optical signals are transmitted by optical cables.
