You could have put in a telephone cable 40 years ago.

That'll usually run megabit+ network with line drivers.

I do still have a reasonable amount of GPO 4 core. I suspect after being
buried for 40 years it might not still be working.

water might play its part in degrading the cable

Ours can be soggy at times too. Bet there are plenty
on that soggy little frigid island that have a feed to
the house that is at least that old.

It's surprising how cable deteriorates in damp conditions. I can only
think that the plastic outer sheath is not perfectly waterproof.

Things can be weird, I remmebr opening a draw from one ofm those plastic storage draw units that are common I kept rubber gromments in it and they had 'welded' themselves to the plastic draw like hot caramel on chocolate (dam master chef).
I;ts only been about 10 years .

But you also have temperture vairations through the years and everything ages.

I think Openreach use a paraffin gel (Vaseline-like) filled cable to
protecte the pairs inside from water. This will be very inert.
