Shropshire-based UK ISP Aquiss<\/a> has informed their customers that – after conducting “months of trials<\/em>” – they will not be launching “ultrafast broadband<\/em>” packages based off Openreach<\/a>’s hybrid fibre G.fast<\/a> service, which the provider has described as being a “resource wasteful technology<\/em>.” Instead they’ll focus on FTTP<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At present the 160-330Mbps capable G.fast<\/a> technology has already been deployed to cover 2.42 million UK premises, although Openreach<\/a> (BT<\/a>) have put their related plans under review and currently only aim to reach 2.73 million premises by March 2020 (here<\/a>). It’s still possible that some G.fast may be deployed after March 2020 but the focus has clearly now shifted to “full fibre<\/em>” deployments.<\/p>\n

Despite this a number of providers are still offering G.fast based services (e.g. BT<\/a>, Sky Broadband<\/a>, TalkTalk<\/a>, Zen Internet<\/a>, EE<\/a> etc.), although Aquiss<\/a> believes that “such mind-sets are somewhat misguided<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

Martin Pitt, MD of Aquiss, told ISPreview.co.uk:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“A full-fibre approach is now the only logical way forward, putting aside short term solutions for long term benefits.<\/p>\n

Our conclusion on G.fast is that it’s a resource wasteful technology both in deployment costs and that its delivered benefits are far less than originally proclaimed. The focus should now be on full-fibre and complete scaling back of any plans for G.fast in favour of FTTP<\/a> and FTTH solutions.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Aquiss currently offers a selection of FTTP packages from as little as \u00a330 per month (currently \u00a315.00 for the first 3 months) with free installation, although it’s worth pointing out that they haven’t yet begun to offer any ultrafast speeds (100Mbps+) alongside these; those are expected soon.<\/p>\n

Under Openreach’s original plan the G.fast service would have been deployed to cover 10 million premises by the end of 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
