Re: Virgin in talks with Power firms

Can't see any technical issues with incorporating a fibre optic system along an existing (pole mounted) infrastructure. Being fibre optic it would not be susceptible to any electro magnetic interference from adjacent systems (power or communication) neither would it induce any either. In fact within the United States and Canada this is the most common practice for cable installations and works very well.

Every credit to VM for pursuing such an initiative, I hope they're successful.
