What Connects Your Home to the Service Provider
The traditional technologies, and the new technologies, both rely on some of the same conduits to transmit signals to and from your home. These include:
Copper Wire -- Twisted pair (traditional “POTS” system)
Coaxial Cable -- Regular cable
Fiber Optic Cable -- Faster transmission speeds than other systems
Hybrid -- Fiber optic cable in the main provider network connected to regular coaxial cable to your home
Radio Signals -- Satellite television, and wireless devices: cellular telephones, broadband wireless mobile cards, and mobile wireless PDA phones
