What is fiber optic TV?

The only TV provider that uses fiber optic technology is Verizon, with starting prices of $85.00/mo.

Like lightning-fast fiber internet, fiber TV uses thin cables made of glass or plastic to transmit information instantaneously. This technology gives fiber optic TV providers the bandwidth needed to send large amounts of data, perfect for delivering high channel counts, HD picture and a reliable signal.

Advantages of fiber optic TV

• Fiber TV offers a higher picture quality than your typical cable TV service
• Since fiber is the most reliable connection type, you will get a smooth streaming experience
• A fiber connection can support multiple devices at once

Fiber TV vs. other connection types

Fiber TV is a bit more expensive than other TV services like cable.

Alternatives to fiber optic TV

• Cable TV or satellite providers offer more traditional TV connections across the country. Streaming is also an alternative to a wired TV service and fiber TV offers more channels than streaming right now
• Verizon Fios TV has channel counts of 400+, while YouTube TV has over 100. You can also still use your own antenna to get local channels
• Cable and fiber TV offer similar pricing, but since fiber optic cables generally provide more bandwidth, fiber TV packages often give you more channel options with up to 550+ channels available in some areas

Where is fiber optic TV available?

You’re most likely to find fiber optic TV in metro areas, but currently only about 45% of the U.S. population has access to fiber technology. However, many fiber providers are consistently expanding their service, so you may have the option before long. Here’s a look at where the largest fiber optic TV and internet providers currently offer service.

Why are other providers not offering fiber TV?

Since streaming services have been on the rise and many customers are cutting the cord, providers no longer want to invest in operating a TV service, especially one that is expensive like fiber. Google Fiber was the only other provider offering it before it stopped selling its TV service in 2021 to focus on streaming. This has left Verizon Fios as the only fiber TV option on the market.
