The city of Moissac is preparing for the definitive closure of its copper network, scheduled for January 31, 2027. This transition affects all users of landline telephony and ADSL internet, who must migrate to fiber optics to maintain their services.

The historical copper network, which has long supported landline telephones and internet (ADSL, VDSL), will permanently cease operations in Moissac on January 31, 2027. Individuals and entities still connected to this technology are strongly urged to migrate to fiber optics without delay to prevent any interruption of their essential services.
It is crucial to note that failure to complete this process in a timely manner could result in the irreversible loss of your current landline telephone number. This measure applies to everyone: individuals, administrations, associations, professionals, and businesses still utilizing the copper network, whether solely for telephony or for internet access, television, VOD, or streaming.
Those whose services are already fully provided via fiber optics are not affected by this announcement.
The transition process will culminate in the definitive disconnection of any remaining active internet and landline telephone accesses on the copper network by January 31, 2027. Therefore, anticipating this change is paramount to ensure service continuity.
It is advisable to contact your current operator or another provider promptly to assess your needs and subscribe to a fiber offer. Even if you only require landline telephony without internet, fiber solutions are available. Operators are expected to contact affected users soon.
Fiber optics offer significant advantages over copper, including substantially higher speeds, better signal quality for a more stable connection, and smoother performance for multiple simultaneous device usage. Furthermore, this more recent network ensures greater scalability and longevity, while reducing energy consumption by a factor of four.
