(And Why It’s Better Than Fibre to the Cabinet)]]></title><description><![CDATA[FTTP broadband (Fibre to the Premises) is a full-fibre internet connection where fibre optic cables run all the way from the network to your home or business. There’s no copper line involved. That’s why it’s faster, more stable, and more reliable than older connections like FTTC or ADSL. In plain English: FTTP is “proper fibre.” Everything else is a compromise. What Does FTTP Actually Mean? FTTP stands for Fibre to the Premises. Definition:A broadband connection where fibre optic cables run...]]></description><link>https://www.telqaris.com/post/what-is-fttp-broadband-and-why-it-s-better-than-fibre-to-the-cabinet</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69f1507321c82a1db67e288d</guid><pubDate>Sun, 26 Apr 2026 23:00:00 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/7d4e30_b0f39ee10d2144199b3814fe3a9e9ad9~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Lex Calder</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Rise of the Strowger Switch]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Strowger switch marked the moment telephony became truly automatic. Replacing human operators with mechanical routing, it allowed calls to be connected quickly, privately, and reliably. This post explores how a simple idea—removing the human middle layer—gave networks the ability to scale and set the foundation for everything that followed.]]></description><link>https://www.telqaris.com/post/the-rise-of-the-strowger-switch</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69ee33997c7678baade8ac5b</guid><pubDate>Sat, 04 Apr 2026 15:55:10 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/7d4e30_76b373d85bc54da89fc460ded72894fa~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_937,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Lex Calder</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[When We Stopped Asking the Operator: The Birth of Dialling]]></title><description><![CDATA[Early telephone calls relied on human operators to connect every call. But as demand grew, this model couldn’t scale. This post explores how dialling and pulse signals replaced manual routing, giving callers direct control. It’s the moment telephony shifted from human-assisted to automated—and laid the groundwork for modern networks.]]></description><link>https://www.telqaris.com/post/when-we-stopped-asking-the-operator-the-birth-of-dialling</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69ee2d407c7678baade899c7</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 Apr 2026 23:00:00 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/7d4e30_af672102b36d4d7189e7ff7aeaea7b08~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Lex Calder</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[From Switchboards to Smart Calls: How Phone Systems Became “Modern”]]></title><description><![CDATA[Once, every business call was manually connected by a switchboard operator.
