I work for O/R , the 2years blah about copper not been supported is rot, I live in a fibre area ( supposed to be no new copper provides from 07/22 ) guess what!! Lots of people dont want or are not interested in fibre.
Lots of companys/institutions use powerfail copper back up telemetry lines, most lifts have a power fail copper line for example
Will keep me busy weaving copper wires until I retire.
ps the O/R network has been opened up for other companys to use, they are very carefull and dont damage the excisting network at all 🤣
