Providing ultrafast connectivity to Hull has already established it as the digital capital of the UK and shows our commitment is as strong as ever to create a city that is fit for the 21st Century.<\/p>\n<p>It also paves the way for the final phase of our Lightstream deployment that will bring ultrafast broadband to everyone in our network.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Matt Hancock, UK Digital Minister, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;KCOM has done a tremendous job in rolling out full fibre broadband for the homes and businesses in Hull.<\/p>\n<p>Full fibre is fundamental for fashioning a Britain fit for the future, and we are investing more than \u00a31bn in taking fibre to new heights, by stimulating further and faster roll-out of full fibre networks across the UK.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Back in September 2017 we revealed that KCOM had so far extended their <strong>\u00a360 million<\/strong> &#8220;<em>Lightstream<\/em>&#8221; fibre network to cover <strong>132,500 premises<\/strong> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2017\/09\/ultrafast-fibre-optic-fttp-broadband-networks-cover-1-1-million-uk-premises.html\">here<\/a>) and the most recent rollout update (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2017\/10\/kcom-detail-q4-2017-fttp-broadband-rollout-12450-premises-hull.html\">here<\/a>) put them on target to hit the 150,000 premises mark by the end of 2017 (i.e. 75% of their overall network). The new network currently has 50,000 residential and 5,000 business customers.<\/p>\n<p>The company now predicts that within the next month the number of its customers with fibre broadband will surpass the number with old fashioned copper internet connections. At present residential consumers are offered a maximum line speed of up to 250Mbps (30Mbps upload) on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a> (soon to be 350Mbps), although we should add that around 7-8% of their new network uses a slower &#8216;up to&#8217; 75Mbps <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttc\">FTTC<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/vdsl\">VDSL2<\/a>) service.<\/p>\n<p>No doubt it won&#8217;t be long now before the rollout plan for the &#8220;<em>final phase<\/em>&#8221; of their deployment to reach the remaining c.50,000 premises (25% of their overall network) is published. On this point it will be interesting to see whether or not KCOM make more use of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttc\">FTTC<\/a> than we have soon so far, not least because serving some of their smaller outlying communities with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a> could be very expensive.<\/p>\n<p>However it\u2019s worth highlighting that Gary Young&#8217;s comment specifically references an aim to extend &#8220;<em>ultrafast broadband<\/em>&#8221; to everyone in their network, which typically means speeds of 100Mbps+ and that would appear to rule-out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/vdsl\">VDSL2<\/a> based <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttc\">FTTC<\/a>.
