Last year saw Openreach<\/a> (BT<\/a>) select ADTRAN’s Software-Defined (SD) Fibre Access Platform to help support the rollout of their new 1Gbps Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) broadband ISP network (here<\/a>), making them the operator’s 3rd strategic supplier. Today the first live subscriber has been connected via this platform.<\/p>\n

At present Openreach<\/a>’s \u201cfull fibre<\/em>\u201d network, which already covers around 4 million UK premises (rising to 4.5m by March 2021), is being backed by an investment of \u00a312bn<\/strong> to reach a total of around 20 million homes and businesses by the \u201cmid \u2013 to late-2020s<\/em>\u201d (here<\/a>). Until recently Huawei<\/strong> was the dominant supplier for this, followed by Nokia<\/strong>, but the Government’s move to restrict the Chinese firm has changed all that (here<\/a>, here<\/a> and here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

In response Openreach<\/a> went on the hunt for a third strategic supplier and, during May 2020, they found the solution in ADTRAN<\/strong> (here<\/a>), which is already a familiar name to many UK networks (a lot of operators are using their kit).<\/p>\n

Under the deal ADTRAN’s SDX<\/a> Series of Optical Line Terminals<\/strong> (OLTs) and their Mosaic Cloud Platform<\/strong><\/a> were to be deployed by Openreach in order to help achieve their ambition of making \u201cgigabit and multi-gigabit<\/em>\u201d services available to homes. The first live subscriber has now been connected to this new platform.<\/p>\n

Peter Bell, Director, Network Technology, Openreach, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We\u2019re fully committed to building the UK\u2019s leading ultrafast, ultra-reliable Full Fibre broadband network and to reinforce our vital role in keeping the nation connected. We\u2019re confident that our new network will help deliver a host of social and economic benefits to the UK \u2013 from boosting productivity to enabling more home working and fewer commuting trips.<\/p>\n

Our engineers have been building faster than ever during the pandemic, and we\u2019re working closely with strategic partners like ADTRAN to help us innovate, extend and accelerate the build even further, without compromising on quality. Our partnership with ADTRAN gives us the ability to scale the build and deliver on our commitment to reaching 20 million homes with FTTP<\/a> by the mid-to-late 2020s.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Today’s announcement also hints at the “future introduction of higher speed symmetric services<\/em>,” although we’re currently only expecting to see this for business FTTP<\/a> customers, but a similar product for homes may follow eventually (not least because many of Openreach\u2019s altnet rivals can already offer this).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
