Message to the Market
Greenpeace Activism Mine that Twisted Pair – –
One of the best arguments for FTTH Investment; Laying fiber would enable telcos to mine the old yet valuable telephone line copper & recycle it.
– – –
Identify the right material right from the beginning; Copper network is on its dying legs; No competitiveness between Copper & Fiber (optimization is a lost cause).
–
Urban mining – Utilize Copper in Electric Engines, Appliances
No alternatives for Moving Electrons …a lot of alternatives for moving information
