It does, all the damn time, and we go out damn near daily fixing that stuff. Its typically refered to ingress/egress. And is common on coax systems. Fiber systems arnt susptibe to rf intereference like coax is. Most hardline on the poles is extra thick with lots of emf shielding to help. But damn squirels here the freq sent on the lines and think their bugs and try chewing to get a tasty treat making us fix your line to your house called a drop as thats usually soft rg6 or rg11 soft coax cable.
