What is Full Fibre Broadband?
Full fibre broadband, or Fibre to the Premises (FTTP), connects directly to your home using fibre optic cables, delivering faster and more consistent speeds than copper broadband. It is ideal for homes that rely on streaming, gaming, remote work or smart technology.
With the upcoming PSTN switch-off in 2027, switching to full fibre is essential. As copper networks are retired, upgrading to fibre ensures your home stays connected and future-ready for the digital age.
