In other words, the quality and length of that copper line (i.e. how far you reside from the cabinet) can play a huge part in the services performance.<\/p>\n<p>For example, some users at the furthest reaches of an FTTC line (very variable but nearing 2,000 metres) might only receive a handful of Megabits, while those who live much closer (very approximately less than 200 metres) may be able to receive closer to or exactly the services top headline speed of <strong>80Mbps<\/strong>. Of course many other factors, such as your own home wiring, could still hinder that.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this we have noted how politicians promoting the related BDUK deployments across the country have, until fairly recently, had a tendency to picture themselves holding a big round <strong>80Mbps speed limit <\/strong>sign (aptly demonstrated in the picture above by comms minister <strong>Ed Vaizey MP<\/strong>).
