Parallel port is less faster than serial port because at a time 8 bit transmitted through 8 data bus and these data bus are then affected by magnetic effect because bits are form of voltage.

Serial port is less affected from magnetic effects.

The main difference between a serial port and a parallel port is that a serial port transmits data one bit after another, while a parallel port transmits all 8 bits of a byte in parallel. Thus a parallel port transmits data much faster than a serial port.

The Serial connections send 1 bit at a time. Parallel transmits 8 or more at a time.

Serial ports are much faster than Parallel ports. The answer should be serial port.
