Last month, we reported that Sky (Sky Broadband<\/a>), which is owned by Comcast, were gearing up to launch their long-awaited TV via broadband (instead of a satellite<\/a> dish) service (here<\/a>). Several sources have now informed us that this will go live this month and be called Sky over IP (SoIP).<\/p>\n

At present, those who want all of Sky’s TV channels need to get a Satellite<\/a> dish installed – either directly or via a Fibre Integrated Reception System<\/strong> (FIRS) system on certain full fibre (FTTP<\/a>) new build home sites. Alternatively, Sky also run the somewhat cut-down and Roku based NOW TV<\/a> spin-off platform.<\/p>\n

However, Sky have long been developing a full TV via broadband platform (here<\/a>), but so far they\u2019ve only launched such a solution in Italy<\/strong> (Sky via Fibre), Austria<\/strong> (Sky X<\/span><\/span>) and, most recently, Germany (Sky Q IP Box<\/strong>). The latter requires a minimum broadband ISP download speed of 6Mbps<\/strong> (i.e. enough for basic HD streaming via a single viewing channel).<\/p>\n

Back in August 2021 reports began to emerge of an “imminent<\/em>” launch of something similar in the United Kingdom, which we were able to confirm via our own sources. But exact details, product names and launch timings were not yet widely known. Likewise, the lack of staff training and larger scale trials (they only seemed to have a very small closed trial) led us to speculate that it might still be a few months away.<\/p>\n

Despite this, several credible sources have now informed us that the new product is to be called Sky over IP<\/strong> (SoIP) – at least internally – and will launch this September 2021. Of course, it wouldn’t surprise us if this slipped into next month at the last minute, but a leaked document seen by ISPreview.co.uk seems fairly confident of the launch happening this year. At the very least, Sept\/Oct seems to be the soft launch.<\/p>\n

However, Sky appears to be keeping the final product details and prices under tight control. We did ask Sky about all this, but they declined to comment. We’re looking forward to seeing what they launch, which will need to at least deliver the same sort of technical features as their rivals at Virgin Media<\/a>, BT<\/a> and elsewhere can already field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
