The Broadband Forum has produced a new technical specification (TR-301) that appears to lay the groundwork for future deployments of VDSL2 (FTTC) and G.fast based broadband technologies that suck the power they need directly from home users (your electricity bill might take a hit).

The Broadband Stakeholders Group, which advises the Government on broadband matters, has published a new report that aims to predict the future requirements of small UK businesses (SMEs). The conclusion finds that SMEs will see median downstream demand rise from 5Mbps in 2015 to just 8.1Mbps by 2025, but the overall picture is more complex.

The state aid supported Broadband Delivery UK project, which is primarily working with BT to deploy superfast “fibre broadband” (FTTC/P) services across the United Kingdom, has now published its latest take-up figures to the end of June 2015 and more councils have now passed the crucial 20% threshold.

BT has cut the cost of their unlimited standard (up to 17Mbps ADSL2+) and superfast (up to 38Mbps FTTC Infinity) broadband packages to just £5 and £10 per month respectively for the first 12 months of service, plus they’ve also reintroduced Sainsbury’s shopping vouchers worth £75 and £125 respectively.

Last year BTOpenreach revealed an interesting new technology that would have enabled them to deploy ADSL2+ (up to 20Mbps) broadband directly from FTTC street cabinets instead of telephone exchanges (here), which could push faster speeds to the most remote premises. But sadly there are no plans to deploy it.

The Federation of Small Business (FSB), Blackdown Hills Business Association (BHBA) and the Country Land and Business Association (CLA) have vented frustration after their views were excluded from an inquiry into the recent collapse of a major broadband expansion deal between BT and the Devon and Somerset councils.

The Superfast Worcestershire project in England has confirmed that even more premises will soon gain access to BT’s “high-speed fibre broadband” (FTTC/P) network thanks to a reinvestment boost of £2.1m due to stronger than expected take-up. A further £0.9m will also come from deployment “savings“.

The small rural county of Rutland in England is to benefit from increased “fibre broadband” (FTTC/P) coverage after it became one of the last Broadband Delivery UK projects to sign a £1.1m Superfast Extension Programme (SEP) contract with BT, which will push the service out to another 900 premises.

As mistake go, this could be a comical whopper. BTOpenreach has handed Internet provider Andrews & Arnold (AAISP) a staggering bill of £25,200 and all for fixing a single customer’s faulty Fibre-to-the-Cabinet (FTTC) broadband line.

The Superfast Essex project in England, which a few months ago announced that its contract with BT would be extended to push “superfast fibre broadband” (FTTC/P) services out to 95% of the region (55,000 extra premises), has today unveiled the first areas to benefit. The deployment date has also been brought forward by a year.

The Superfast Staffordshire project is the latest to confirm that BT will return £2.4 million as a result of clawback in their first Broadband Delivery UK contract, which can be reinvested to improve the local coverage of faster “fibre broadband” services.

The clawback spam continues as the Northern Lincs Broadband project confirms that its first roll-out contract, which completed in June 2015 after bringing BT’s “fibre broadband” (FTTC/P) network to 92.5% of premises, delivered “savings” of over £1m that will be put back into further expanding coverage.

The Superfast West Yorkshire project in England has today announced that 97% of local premises can now access a “high-speed fibre broadband” (FTTC/P) service from BT, which means that the first deployment contract has completed ahead of its original end of September 2015 goal.
