From the Technology Graveyard
You just read about Cable. Here is what it replaced:
Open-wire lines served 1880–1980. What ultimately replaced it?
Open-wire lines bare copper conductors bolted to glass insulators on wooden crossarms; wires were periodically transposed (crossed over) to cancel crosstalk and interference. Weather-exposed and very low capacity. Its job passed to Cable — but the problem it solved, and the ideas it proved, live on in what replaced it. The standard rests here in the archive. One of 198 technologies here that opened a door and then held it for the next.
From 25 years of the Converge Digest archive.
