Re: Will Verizon shut down copper phone accounts? Just to add to the conversation, fiber has been used to provide plain old telephone service for decades now.
Anyone who is familiar with DSL in its early days, or was a visitor to this site, may recall people talking about how they couldn't get DSL because part of their telephone line was delivered over fiber and only part was delivered on copper.
Some providers used to sell i-dsl -- DSL service over fiber which was just ISDN service without a B-Channel.

I am pretty sure it still had two B channels. They only did data. On IDSN you had two B channels that you could use for voice or data.
I think on IDSL they even used the D channel as well to give you upto 144Kbps. |
