Earlier this year we reported that a new operator called Open Infra<\/a> was gearing up to start rolling out a new 8Gbps capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) based broadband ISP network in the UK (here<\/a>). Members of our community have now helped us to spot some of their first build sites and packages, in Norfolk and London.<\/p>\n

The Birmingham-based operator – headed up by Tobias Bengt Robin Uller<\/strong> – is a fairly new company<\/a>, at least in the UK. The operator is originally a Swedish provider that runs fibre optic networks in Sweden, Germany and the USA. Until today, we only knew that they intended to deploy their network at “selected locations<\/em>” across the country and would adopt an open access wholesale model (i.e. giving rival ISPs access to sell packages over their network).<\/p>\n

However, several of ISPreview.co.uk’s readers (here<\/a>) have recently received leaflets from Open Infra, which appear to confirm the operator’s plan to build in a number of areas. The first area is within the NW7<\/strong> postcode near Edgware, Barnet (London borough), while the second reflects around 500 premises in North Walsham<\/strong> (NR28), Norfolk. Both leaflets talk about the build beginning during this year’s summer and autumn period.<\/p>\n

As per usual these days, Open Infra won’t be the only gigabit-capable operator playing in some of these areas. For example, North Walsham is also an area of active deployment by Openreach<\/a>’s FTTP<\/a> network. Naturally, Open Infra will be able to benefit from some of that work by running their own fibre cables through existing ducts and poles via the Physical Infrastructure Access<\/strong> (PIA) solution.<\/p>\n

Councillor Tom FitzPatrick, Norfolk County Council, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“I’m delighted that Open Infra are planning to build a gigabit speed fibre broadband network in North Walsham, ensuring residents and businesses can get access to gigabit speeds, something which is becoming ever more essential to meet both current and future requirements.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The leaflets also point towards the company’s first UK retail ISP, which is named as the previously unknown Optyx Broadband<\/a><\/strong> – this was setup in London by another Swedish national called Jonathan Vage Karn (here<\/a>). The provider offers packages on a simple 30-day term and with prices starting from \u00a317.90 per month for 250Mbps (100Mbps upload), which rises up to \u00a338.90 for their 1Gbps (100Mbps upload) plan.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, the packages being promoted on Open Infra’s leaflets differ slightly from those on Optyx’s website. For example, the leaflet’s associated engagement letter in Norfolk mentions a contract term of 12-24 months, although a free router and free setup \/ installation is mentioned on both.<\/p>\n

The operator appears to use the same 100Mbps upload speed for almost all of their packages, except the very top tier – this costs \u00a3128.90 per month and offers download speeds of 8Gbps (1Gbps upload)<\/strong> – one of the fastest domestic tiers in the country!<\/p>\n

Only a very few providers (e.g. B4RN<\/a>) actually have live packages in the 8-10Gbps territory, so this is still pretty special and that price tag is comparatively cheap, at least by UK standards. Not that you\u2019d be able to harness such speeds in real-world tasks, yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
