    Sindicel, the Brazilian electric conductors and non-ferrous metals association, expects sales of copper and copper alloy wire, cable and semis to rise by 10% y-o-y in 2011. Domestic production is also predicted to increase by 10% y-o-y in the same period. The sector's output and sales has been boosted by demand from the automotive, construction and telecommunications industries. In addition, a poll of Brazilian copper products producers revealed that half were operating above 80% capacity utilisation. Ibram, the national mining association, also reported that wire and cable production will grow by 39% by 2016. This will be primarily driven by the construction industry due to events such as the 2014 World Cup, the 2016 Olympics and also government programs. According to Ibram, Brazilian output of copper products was 230,000t in 2010 and is anticipated to grow to 475,000t by 2014.

  • BT Group's Group Strategy Director, Sean Williams, continued the discussion on extending services by identifying how the existing copper networks should continue to be used for many years ahead. He said: "We are moving at the pace of our customers and there is a lot that can be done with copper. Our business case is predicated on getting 20 per cent of our copper customers onto fibre, but I think it's completely naive to expect to get everyone on fibre -- not for a generation."

    According to an industry body, Japan's copper wire and cable shipments declined by 1.6% y-o-y to 59,500t in September. The decline was the result of weaker demand fromthe telecommunications, power utilities and the electrical machinery sectors. Nonetheless, demand picked up 0.5% y-o-y from the automotive sector.

  • The figures show that copper-based broadband technologies (DSL, ADSL, and ADSL2+) continue to be dominant, although fiber-optic broadband technologies (which include VDSL and VDSL2, according to the Broadband Forum) are taking a firmer grip with growth rates of 17.6% overall. Although DSL remains the predominant technology, fiber continues to outpace all access types in new deployments, according to the analysts.

  • 'The benefit of switching off copper networks is that this may further incentivise investment by operators to increase coverage of non-copper networks, and also act as a spur to replace last-mile copper networks, or allow substitution with mobile or fixed wireless services.,' it went on.

  • Bell Labs is back, recently setting a new world record of 10 gigabit per second over existing copper wires. Why is this important? Because it solves the fiber-to-residence problem. Fiber cables for high-speed Internet services are being laid all throughout the country and world, but at a relatively slow rate due to the "curb-to-residence" problem. Many home owners are reluctant to let their lawns be dug up to lay fiber from the curb to the house, and many Internet providers are reluctant to incur the cost. Now Alcatel-Lucent's Bell Labs (Murray Hill, New Jersey) has a invented a solution -- a method of running 1-to-10 gigabit per second broadband signals from the curb to the residence using the existing copper telephone lines already there.

    Openreach is not removing copper lines, meaning that customers connected to Sky and TalkTalk's analogue voice networks will continue to be able to use the services.
