Openreach<\/a> has today officially announced the launch of their new pilot for UK broadband ISPs, which will test faster download speeds of 1.2Gbps and 1.8Gbps on their Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) lines. The service will also be accompanied by two new optical modems (ONT) from Nokia G-010G-T and ADTRAN SDX 611Q.<\/p>\n

The news won’t come as much of a surprise to ISPreview’s readership because we leaked the existence of this pilot back in September 2022 (here<\/a> and here<\/a>). At present the fastest FTTP<\/a> download tier available to consumers on their network is 1Gbps (115Mbps upload – 220Mbps for business lines), but advertising rules usually force ISPs to promote this as a 900Mbps+ package (i.e. median average speed, as measure at peak time).<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> The operator\u2019s \u00a315bn Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) network currently covers 8 million premises, but they aim to reach 25m by December 2026 (c.80%+ of the UK).<\/div>\n

The new pilot – due to start on 1st December 2022<\/strong> – will enable ISPs to pick from two faster download tiers – 1.2Gbps<\/strong> and 1.8Gbps<\/strong> (both offer 120Mbps upstream). In order to support this, the operator’s engineers will need to install new Optical Network Terminals<\/strong> (ONT \/ ONU) with a 2.5Gbps LAN \/ Ethernet port – the Nokia G-010G-T<\/strong> and ADTRAN SDX 611Q<\/strong> (the latter is pictured on this article).<\/p>\n

Supporting ISPs will also be expected to supply broadband routers that can handle the same 2.5G<\/a> Ethernet standard on their LAN\/WAN ports. But availability of the new tiers will initially be restricted to customers living in the Swansea<\/strong> area of Wales. The pilot will run for 4-months and may be expanded to additional locations at a later date.<\/p>\n

Pilot Pricing (Wholesale and ex. VAT)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
1800\/120 Mbit\/s rentals<\/td>\n\u00a339.90 per month<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
1200\/120 Mbit\/s rentals<\/td>\n\u00a334.90 per month<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Standard connection charge (one-off)<\/td>\n\u00a3103.32<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Engineer visit for swap of existing ONT to 2.5G<\/a> ONT<\/td>\n\u00a390<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Remember, the above reflects wholesale pricing, which means that they don\u2019t account for all the extra costs that an ISP must add (e.g. 20% VAT, services, network capacity, profit margin etc.) and thus retail prices for consumers will of course be much higher than this.<\/p>\n

Openreach Statement<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

For the newly launched speeds to be consumed, a 2.5Gbit\/s optical network terminator (ONT) will be required. In a box-swap scenario, an engineer will need to attend the end customer\u2019s premises to swap the existing ONT for a 2.5Gbit\/s ONT. In these instances, the \u00a390 box-swap charge applies, but no bandwidth modify charge will be charged.<\/p>\n

We are also matching the price points onto FOD (Fibre on Demand) with the same rentals, same connection, but excluding the box-swap.<\/p>\n

Standard and Premium connection charges will be consistent will all other GEA-FTTP speed tiers, with Premium having a \u00a340 price differential versus Standard.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The strong suspicion here is that the new 1.2Gbps tier will enable ISPs to promote true “gigabit<\/em>” packages that can advertise and deliver real download speeds of 1000Mbps+ (as opposed to the 900Mbps+ advertised rates of today). Meanwhile, the fastest 1.8Gbps option appears as if it could be intended to help counter Virgin Media<\/a>’s (VMO2) future plan for a 2Gbps tier, although Openreach<\/a> have denied this.<\/p>\n

The difficulty is that Openreach<\/a> are still using a Gigabit Passive Optical Network<\/strong> (GPON) platform, which does tend to place some limitations on how fast their packages can go before capacity becomes an issue. The GPON standard supports a capacity on each trunk line of up to 2.5Gbps downstream and 1.24Gbps upstream, which needs to be shared between several premises.<\/p>\n

However, Openreach do have plans to adopt 10Gbps capable XGS-PON technology, although they’ve yet to announce a solid timetable for that and upgrading existing premises will require a gradual migration. In the meantime, many of their rivals in the rapidly growing alternative network (AltNet) space are already deploying 10Gbps capable XGS-PON<\/strong> kit as standard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
