NTL Telephone Lines - (Where does the copper pair terminate)
Hi Guys,
Out of curiosity can anyone explain how NTL's telephone lines work as i know NTL dont have exchanges like BT but have head ends/nodes with the network comprised of fibre optic cables up to the large 3-door cabs near your house. I know that the coax services like TV and Broadband are supplied up to the cabs by fibre and then converted over to coax, does the same apply to the copper pair telephone lines as in the line is supplied as fibe up to the big cab where it then gets converted to copper pair. Or does the copper pair run all the way back to the head end/node ad then terminate onto the network.
I'm just curious as i work in IT and look after our internal telephone systems, i have a good idea how BT's network set up is but are not so clear on the NTL side of things even though i have NTL at home myself - lol!
If anyone can let me know then that would be great.
Cheers Guys
Dan
