Super Fast Broadband Speed in favor of the UK


Britain's attempt toward be at the top of the global broadband market with plans to install a network that offers speeds 20 times faster than the average UK household connection. BT hopes its deployment of the UK's fastest ever residential network, at the development of 10,000 new homes, will stay a crucial test bed as the government, regulator Ofcom and industry come toward decide how toward upgrade the country's broadband network.

From August, BT's Openreach unit will start installing super fast fibre connections rather than traditional copper telephony lines at the Ebbsfleet site in Kent. It will offer the lines to BT Retail and rival ISPs and media companies such as Carphone Warehouse's TalkTalk and BSkyB, on a wholesale basis, enabling these companies to give a host of bandwidth-hungry services such as high definition TV and film downloads.

BT will supply the basic infrastructure and service providers will have the opportunity toward build their own services on the back of it.

The move is welcomed by band leaders who last year warned that the UK risks being left behind in the broadband race by countries such as the US, Japan, Korea, France and Germany where new fibre networks are already being rolled out.
The 100-MB top rate ready in excess of the new fibre network is more than 20 times faster than the current average UK residential broadband connection, which Ofcom estimated last year at 4.6 MB.

The top speed leaving in Ebbsfleet besides ranks alongside speeds already on offer in Japan, Korea and the US and will keep Britain in competition with France and Germany where large-scale fibre networks are to stay built in excess of the coming four years.
This project is just the start of Britain's journey into the next phase of broadband. Last year Ofcom launched a consultation into the regulation of next generation access networks.

Replacing copper telephony lines with fibre will cost upwards of £10bn and numerous in the industry expect the country's next generation broadband network to actually be a patchwork of fibre, high-speed copper lines and wireless access in mo00001161re rural areas.
BT hopes to stay able to start installing fibre connections at all new sizeable residential developments in the UK from this year and is in discussions with Ofcom as to what regulation is needed. It is reckoned that it is no more expensive toward deliver fibre based infrastructure than it is to put copper lines in the ground.
