| | | copper technology/cables | Explanation:
copper technology = copper cables (as opposed to fibre optic cables)
Aren’t BT, Virgin Media and others offering the same thing?
Other providers promise faster Internet but much of this still relies on the existing copper wire technology. Improvements to this technology will continue to struggle to match growing demand. BT Infinity is based on optical-fibre technology like FibreSpeed’s, but it’s going to be several years before it arrives across Wales. Even then, the ‘last mile’ to your door may still use existing copper technology.

Copper wire technology is another option (technology would normally remain singular in En) |
