More UK ISPs Join FullFibre Limited’s New Broadband Network

Network operator FullFibre Limited, which is building a new gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) broadband network across various parts of England, has today announced that two more ISPs have joined their wholesale network – Link Broadband and OctaPlus.

The operator, which deploys its network as a wholesale platform via Fibre Heroes for other ISPs to harness (i.e. consumers should visit that site to check coverage), is currently targetting 80+ towns (34 are already in-build) across parts of 11 different counties (e.g. Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Herefordshire and Gloucestershire). At present, their aim is to reach “at least” 500,000 premises by 2025

At present a number of ISPs sell broadband packages over the new network, such as BeFibre, iDNET, Merula, Redline, Squirrel and ZYBRE (Air Broadband). But they’ve today been joined by both Link Broadband and OctaPlus.

James Warner, CSO at FullFibre, said:

“We are really pleased to be working with these new partners, all of whom bring more choice to customers looking to connect to the FullFibre network. A big part of our ethos at FullFibre is to level the digital landscape across the UK.

By securing a future-proof full fibre internet connection in our regions for decades to come, and doing so with a range of ISP partners to choose from, we are creating both more choice and opportunity in these overlooked areas.”

End.
