FTTC & FTTP Fibre To The Cabinet & To The Premise

FTTC with speeds of 40Mb or 80Mb download available over copper PSTN lines if you already have one as they go end of life Auguat 2023. FTTP with speeds up to 1000Mb download with fibre all the way to your premise (or home) is the future for broadband

FTTC Fibre To The Cabinet Broadband

Datanet offers FTTC fibre connectivity with speeds of up to 80Mbps. Visit any built up area and you will find dark green cabinets along the roadside. These cabinets have historically contained all the connections and communications equipment for your Internet and telephony connections.  However, in recent years BT has introduced FTTC (Fibre to the Cabinet) by replacing the copper wire from the exchange to the cabinet with fibre, resulting in increased speeds of up to 80Mbps downstream and 20Mbps upstream. However, In August 2023 the underlying copper PSTN line supporting FTTC will go end of life so, unless you already have a PSTN line, FTTC will aslo be going end of life.

FTTP Fibre To The Premises Broadband

Datanet also offers FTTP Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) using fibre all the way to your premises rather than stopping at the cabinet like FTTC.  With the whole journey from exchange to premises over fibre, FTTP can support speeds of up to 1000Mbps downstream/115Mbps upstream.  Datanet offers a number of speed options for FTTP and other connection types, give us a call to discuss.
