Fibre broadband is a technology that uses fibre optic cable, as opposed to traditional copper telephone lines, to deliver an internet connection. With Full Fibre, these fibre optic cables are used to deliver connection both from the local exchange to the street cabinet, and from the street cabinet directly into your premises. This differs from standard fibre, whereby fibre optic cables deliver connection from the local exchange to the street cabinet, but inferior copper cabling connects the street cabinet to your premises.

It also indicates a widespread misconception around the responsibility for backup and recovery of data in the cloud and a lack of confidence in the security of data held by public cloud service providers.
