Optical fibre and coaxial cable are both types of guided media used to transmit data over a network. Optical fibre is made of plastic and glass and transmits signals as light pulses, whereas coaxial cable is made of plastic and copper wires and transmits signals as electrical signals. Optical Fibre Optical fibre uses thin strands of glass or plastic to carry data as pulses of light. It offers extremely high speeds, very low signal loss over long distances, and is immune to electromagnetic interference. However, it is more expensive and complex to install.

Cyber Security and Information Security are often used interchangeably, but they differ in scope. Cyber security deals with protecting networks, computers, and data from unauthorized electronic/digital access. Information security deals with protecting information assets regardless of whether the information is in physical or digital format. It is important to note the difference between data and information. Not all data is information − data becomes information when it is interpreted in context and given meaning. For example, "14041989" is just data, but when we know it is a person's date of birth, it becomes information. Hence, all information is data, ...

The physical layer meets all these requirements out. The set of rules and procedures for interaction between physical layers are called Physical layer protocols. The layer provides a physical connection different from the physical transmission path because it is at the bit level while the transmission path is at the electrical signal level. This physical connection can be a point to point physical connection or point to the multi-point physical connection, as shown in the figure − The physical layer provides its services to the data link layer, the next higher layer of the OSI model.
