Is the Netgear C7800 Nighthawk X4s Ac3200 WiFi Cable Modem Router compatible with a Fiber Internet service?

In a word, no.  The C7800 is a combination cable modem and router.  The only input is via a coax cable. 

 

Your fiber service will have an Optical Network Terminal (ONT) for the termination point.  Normally the ONT has an Ethernet output and you would need a router.  Some ONTs are also combination devices that include a router.  Depending on what part of the world you are located, common practices vary.
