The latest independent study of UK broadband coverage for H2 2020 has estimated that “full fibre<\/em>” (FTTP<\/a>) ISP networks have now increased their reach to 19.2% of premises (up from 14.8% in H1), while 37.4% are within reach of “gigabit<\/em>” speeds (up from 22.1%) and 64.3% can get 100Mbps+ (up from 61.7%).<\/p>\n

The focus these days has now switched from “superfast<\/em>” (30Mbps+<\/strong>) to “gigabit<\/em>” (1000Mbps+<\/strong> or 1Gbps+<\/strong>) networks and as such it’s important to give a little context. Until recently nearly all of the new gigabit coverage was coming from Fibre-to-the-Premises<\/strong> (FTTP<\/a>) networks via operators like Openreach<\/a> (BT<\/a>), Hyperoptic<\/a>, Gigaclear<\/a>, Cityfibre<\/a>, CommunityFibre<\/a>, G.Network<\/a>, TrueSpeed<\/a> and many others (Summary of Full Fibre Builds<\/strong><\/a>).<\/p>\n

However, Virgin Media<\/a>’s decision to rollout DOCSIS<\/a> 3.1<\/strong> technology, which is now rapidly being spread across both their new FTTP<\/a> and existing Hybrid Fibre Coax<\/strong> (HFC) networks (here<\/a>) – due to complete by the end of 2021 (covering c.16 million premises or around 55-60% of the UK), has changed the aforementioned dynamic.<\/p>\n

In short, we’re currently seeing a surge in gigabit coverage from that combination of DOCSIS<\/a> 3.1 upgrades and FTTP deployments, both of which are in the process of ramping-up. At present most of this is thanks to commercial investment, often with a little support from the Government’s various voucher schemes, but we also expect the new \u00a35bn Gigabit Broadband Programme<\/strong><\/a> (F20) to start having a gradual impact from 2022.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile those still stuck in sub-10Mbps areas will, for the time being, be left with little option but to try and harness the Government’s flawed 10Mbps Universal Service Obligation<\/strong><\/a> (USO). Most people taking the USO are being promised speeds of above 10Mbps (often via 4G<\/a> rather than fibre), but some of those are already finding that they live in areas where not even the USO can cover the colossal upgrade costs (here<\/a> and here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Below you can see the latest modelling from Thinkbroadband<\/a> to 7th January 2021 (H2 – 2020) and as usual we’ve stripped out some of the more confusing aspects in order to make it easier to read. We should point out that the USO figure doesn’t reflect 4G<\/a> mobile coverage and is thus higher than Ofcom<\/a>’s own result of 0.6% (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> The figures in brackets (%) represent the previous H1 – 2020 result (July 2020).<\/div>\n

NOTE 1:<\/strong> <\/span>Nearly all of the “ultrafast<\/em>” (100Mbps+) coverage is coming from Virgin Media<\/a>’s cable network, although Openreach<\/a>, Hyperoptic<\/a>, Gigaclear<\/a>, Cityfibre<\/a> and others all have big “full fibre<\/em>” (FTTP) expansion plans. The 330Mbps capable G.fast<\/a> roll-out to 2.8 million UK premises has had a small impact too.<\/p>\n

NOTE 2:<\/strong><\/span> It’s very important to remember that Government \/ political coverage targets like 95% reflect a national average, which can of course be better or worse for some regions (e.g. a few may achieve universal coverage, while others could be well below that).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Take note that each devolved region (Scotland, Wales etc.) has its own policy and targets, which all feed into the central UK figure. Interestingly, while Northern Ireland<\/strong> may be struggling to deliver superfast speeds, their full fibre coverage is way ahead of other regions and we suspect they’ll be one of the first to achieve near universal coverage of gigabit-capable broadband.<\/p>\n

As stated earlier, this data is an estimate and should be taken with a pinch of salt, not least because it won’t always reflect the real-world. But it’s still one of the best and most up-to-date gauges that we have for checking against official claims (official figures tend to be a tiny bit higher than TBB’s due to differences in data modelling etc.).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
