Hi
Why does a copper wire has relatively low bandwidth? Perhaps, it has something to do inductive and capacitive effects in copper wires; for instance, in a **broken link removed** electromagnetic effects are cancelled which means less capacitive and inductive effects. But what about microwaves? They only need free space to travel which means capacitive and inductive effects. What effects limit their bandwidth. The same goes for optical fiber because it also has upper bandwidth cap. Please help me.
Regards
