Convergence Conversation

Sup-loop unbundling begins in Rutland

Rutland Telecom have just tweeted that their civils start today. This is basically a community project designed to connect one community in a mobile and broadband crapspot using their own street cab, positioned to next to a BT cab......

Although this is FTTC, there is no reason why in future it cannot be upgraded to FTTH. More communities need to look at this type of option, even though obviously a full fibre path would be preferable to metallic, but it is at least taking control of the problem and delivering today what BT and others can't and won't.

Good on 'em. Read more about Rutland Telecom broadband solution
