Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Model R8000

Is this router capable of working with fiber optic cable with speeds of 500+ megabytes? I would like to switch from regular (Spectrum) to the newer Greenlight (friberoptice).

    As long a the Fiber ONT has a ethernet RJ45 internet port. I'd contact the ISP first to see if they support users connecting there own routers in place of what they may or may not require. Most ONTs work fine with external routers.
