Frequently Asked Questions
Frontier plans to communicate retirement of copper using multiple notifications, such as:
- First: For Carriers who subscribe to Frontier wholesale carrier notifications, a Public Notice Serving Wire Center (SWC) Common Language Location Indicator (CLLI) and impacted associated addresses
- Second: Carrier-specific mailed and emailed notifications with specific impacted circuit/service details
- Third: Customer-specific email reminder regarding circuits/services
- Fourth: Customer-specific email reminder regarding circuits/services
- Fifth and Final: Customer-specific email that services not converted will be disconnected
Copper to Fiber transformation notifications published within the previous 12 months are available above in the Notifications section. For older notifications, please visit the respective year notifications page from the Notifications and News menu.

Aerial Power Pole: the least common and will require our technicians to string a new cable.
