The signal was always electrical, and I can tell you that at the times 
we used it, there was no noticeable delay (yes, I used a modem to 
connect over 2000Km, submarine cable included). There are other issues, 
like bandwidth. And that the old POTS network had a very small delay 
(there were standards to comply with), but more importantly, the delay 
was constant during the entire connection - something Internet can not 
guarantee.
