What technology does Rostelecom use to connect the Internet?

FTTB (Fiber-To-The-Building) is translated from English as “fiber to the building” and means the use of optical cable instead of copper wires. Copper wires are used to operate the telephone and Internet using ADSL technology, but they do not allow the use of high-speed Internet, and in addition, they have low noise immunity - at a great distance from the PBX, the speed of your Internet can be quite low.

An optical cable has the advantage of allowing you to connect the Internet, telephone and cable TV with just one cable at a time: the bandwidth of the optical cable can easily cope with such a load.
