===Current practice=== Loaded cable is no longer a useful technology for submarine communication cables, having first been superseded by [[coaxial cable|co-axial cable]] using electrically powered in-line [[repeater]]s and then by [[optical fiber|fibre-optic cable]]. Manufacture of loaded cable declined in the 1930s and was then superseded by other technologies post-[[World War II]].<ref name="Green"/> Loading coils can still be found in some telephone landlines today but new installations use more modern technology.
