Copper
 is everywhere...
Ethernet loop bonding delivers high-bandwidth services without the cost of 
fiber construction. 
With more than
 85%
 of all US businesses served by copper today, 
copper loop bonding is the ideal solution for optimizing OPEX. The business case 
works — Ethernet access has a quick ROI, with gross margins of 
80%
 realized by 
incumbent and alternative carriers alike! Simple to install, fast to deploy… without 
costly fiber installations or infrastructure additions.
