Rochdale-based UK ISP Zen Internet<\/a> has quietly stopped selling Openreach<\/a>’s (BT<\/a>) hybrid fibre G.fast<\/a> based “ultrafast broadband<\/em>” products, which were first launched by the provider back in 2018 alongside average download speeds of 145Mbps (30Mbps upload) or 300Mbps (50Mbps upload).<\/p>\n

The G.fast<\/a> (ITU G.9700\/9701) technology works similarly to the existing 80Mbps capable Fibre-to-the-Cabinet<\/strong> (FTTC<\/a> \/ VDSL2<\/a>) service. In this setup, a fibre optic cable is run to your local PCP Street Cabinet, which is then fitted with an extension “pod<\/em>” to house the new G.fast<\/a> line cards. The service then reaches your home via an existing copper cable.<\/p>\n

However, G.fast can only deliver its best speeds to those within c.100-300 metres of a cabinet, and take-up has been weak. Back in 2019 Openreach<\/a> took the decision (here<\/a>) to shelve the technology’s rollout in favour of a greater focus on Fibre-to-the-Premises<\/strong> (FTTP<\/a>) technology. As a result, G.fast only managed to cover 2.8 million UK premises before it was stopped (down from the original plan for 10 million) and future support thus looks uncertain.<\/p>\n

Suffice to say that we weren’t hugely surprised when our readers started to report that Zen’s availability checker was no longer returning results for G.fast, although we didn’t expect it to happen quite this soon. Furthermore, Zen’s ultrafast broadband product page still states: “We\u2019ve been supporting Ultrafast G.fast and FTTP<\/a> technology for over five years, so even if you can find another Ultrafast provider they won\u2019t have our expertise or experience<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

After running some of our own checks we were also unable to bring up any results in G.fast areas, while Zen’s own live chat system has confirmed to two customers (Credits to Phil and Ryan) that the products were no longer being sold. So far as we can tell, Zen’s decision to stop selling G.fast only applies to new customers, while existing customers will continue to be supported.<\/p>\n

We have hailed Zen’s PR and product teams in the hope of getting an official response and will report back later.<\/p>\n

UPDATE 5pm<\/strong><\/p>\n

We’ve had a statement from Zen.<\/p>\n

Paul Sinclair, Zen’s Marketing Director, told ISPreview.co.uk:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Due to a combination of factors, though mainly driven by the pace of the full fibre rollout and take up of this by our customers, we will discontinue selling G.fast to our residential customers at the end of this week. <\/p>\n

Currently customers can still purchase G.fast over the phone, but in preparation, this service has been removed from our website. We will continue to support existing G.fast customers and the service will still be provided to our wholesale Partners via ICP.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
