Fiber or Eithenet

I need to pull new cable from my router / Small Green Computer Music Server to my DAC (Bricasti M1S2 with nexwork card). Which should I pull and why? Differences. I think about WireWorld for the ethernet. About an 80 ft run.

I thought it was a very large improvement using the Fiber over Ethernet cable. At least with my Lumin, which accept fiber direct without needing a conversion adapter. I did however purchase some very good Transceivers. And I am going straight from my Lumin X1 to my amps. (No preamp). ozzy
