For this cable specifically, the optical signal spends significant time traveling through air, which has a lower index of refraction (higher signal speed) than the solid-glass cables in common use.
The article abstract claims a 45% improvement in signal speed, which would reduce latency over longer distances simply because the information arrives sooner.
I’ve had good luck with their mid-high end kitchen appliances and washer/dryer.
Not impressed with the TV and the AI update made the UI very slow and unresponsive. Next one will not be LG.
