I was responsible for specifying and procuring the first Siemens DSP???10000 Digital PBX for BP in the UK. We wanted to run a load of extensions out to a site compound and BT 'free issued' us with a kilometer of 100 pair, jelly filled armored cable. That was hard stuff to manhandle about... Not used in the public network anymore, all cables are run through duct these days. Armoured cables are always a problem to fault on as the joints were buried, so no immediate access. Only the smaller 1 to 5 pair armoured cables are used now in exceptional circumstances at a customers property where duct cannot be run on their property. Quote
