Openreach<\/a> (BT<\/a>) has today released the ‘Tranche 10’ batch of 32 UK exchange areas where they plan to move away from copper-based analogue phone (PSTN \/ WLR etc.) services and on to a new all-IP network, which will also occur once over 75% of premises in each area can get “ultrafast broadband<\/em>” (FTTP<\/a> and G.fast<\/a> at 300Mbps+).<\/p>\n

Just to recap, there are currently two different, albeit related, phases to moving away from the old copper line infrastructure. The first starts with the gradual migration of traditional analogue voice (PSTN) services to digital all-IP technologies (e.g. SOGEA<\/strong><\/a>), which is due to complete by December 2025<\/strong> and is occurring on copper line products (i.e. copper and full fibre ISPs are both introducing digital voice \/ VoIP style solutions for customers).<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Openreach<\/a>’s full fibre currently covers 8 million UK premises (build rate of c.59,000 per week) and they aim to reach 25 million (80%+) by Dec 2026.<\/div>\n

The second phase involves the ongoing rollout of faster Fibre-to-the-Premise<\/strong>s (FTTP<\/a>) broadband infrastructure – using light signals via optical fibre, instead of slower electrical signals via copper. Only after this second stage has largely completed in an exchange area can you really start to switch-off copper in favour of fibre, which is a longer process as you have to allow a few years for user migration.<\/p>\n

The process for fully moving from copper to “fibre<\/em>” begins once 75% of premises in an exchange are able to receive ultrafast connectivity. We note that hybrid fibre G.fast<\/a> coverage also counts for this, but its impact will be small (the rollout stopped at 2.83 million premises) and is only relevant where speeds of 300Mbps+ are achievable.<\/p>\n

Between the full fibre rollout and the gradual switch away from copper lines, this process will take several years in each area to complete, and the pace will vary (i.e. some areas will have better fibre coverage than others). We should add that Openreach<\/a> currently plans to stop selling all analogue phone lines to new customers by September 2023<\/strong> (as above, this has no impact on copper SOGEA or full fibre lines, as they’re digital).<\/p>\n

The Next 32 Exchange Locations (Tranche 10)<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

The migration process away from the legacy services usually starts with a “no move back<\/em>” (i.e. no going back to copper) policy for premises connected with FTTP<\/a>, which is followed by a “stop-sell<\/em>” of copper services to new customers (12-months’ notice is given before this starts and that is what today’s list represents).<\/p>\n

The above stage is then followed by a final “withdrawal<\/em>” phase. At present, Openreach are already preparing to fully shut down and withdraw older analogue products in two trial areas – Salisbury<\/strong> and Mildenhall<\/strong> – and they’ve notified ISPs that these products will be withdrawn in Spring 2023. But many more will follow, including those in today’s list, albeit not for a while.<\/p>\n

The 32 exchanges announced today – reflecting 287,000 premises – takes the total number of exchange upgrades that have already been notified as part of the aforementioned process (including trial exchanges) to 672 (i.e. a total of around 5.9 million premises). The “stop sell<\/em>” in these areas will be introduced from 1st November 2023.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Openreach has around 5,600 exchanges, but hybrid fibre (FTTC<\/a>, G.fast<\/a>) and full fibre (FTTP) services are supplied via different exchanges (c.1,000 of that 5,600 total) – so up to 4,600 will eventually close (after 2030) – see here<\/a>, here<\/a> and here<\/a>.<\/div>\n

The operator has also added a Stop Sells Page<\/strong><\/a> to their website, which makes it easy to see all of these changes. Remember, the following list is tentative, so changes and delays do sometimes occur.<\/p>\n
