What is fibre broadband?

To understand fibre broadband and how it works, you first need to know that the connection to the telephone exchange is actually in two sections. The first of these runs from the exchange to the roadside cabinet near your office. The second connects your premises to the cabinet.

Fibre to the cabinet means just what its name implies: a fibre-optic cable runs from the telephone exchange to the kerbside cabinet. This is the majority of the distance that data will need to travel - often up to or exceeding 5km - and by using fibre-optic technology, users can enjoy much faster internet upload and download speeds than they would on traditional wires.

The cabinet-to-office section of the Internet connection will be via a standard phone line, using a signal that can cover the short distance quickly.

Fibre broadband hardware

Fibre broadband (FTTC) requires a Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPOE) router with an Ethernet WAN port. We recommend the Netgear N300 or the Draytek 2830n if you need more spec.
