We study the transmission of both classical and quantum information through all the phases of a finite XXZ spin chain. This characterizes the merit of the different phases in terms of their ability to act as a quantum wire. As far as quantum information is concerned, we need only consider the transmission of entanglement as the direct transmission of a quantum state is equivalent. The isotropic AFM spin chain is found to be the optimal point of the phase diagram for the transmission of quantum entanglement when one considers both the amount of transmitted entanglement and the velocity with which it is transmitted. However, this optimal point in the phase diagram moves to the Neel phase when decoherence or thermal fluctuations are taken to account. This chain may also be able to transfer classical information even when, due to a large magnitude of the noise, quantum information is not transmitted at all. For a certain range of anisotropies of the model, a curious feature is found in the flow of quantum information inside the chain, namely, a hopping mode of entanglement transfer which skips the odd-numbered sites. Our predictions will potentially be testable in several physical systems.
