Broadband interconnect platform operator X3T has announced an impressive enhancement to its board of directors with news that Gavin Patterson (CEO of BT Group until 2019), Derek McManus (COO of Telefonica until 2021) and Thomas P O’Neill (CEO of O’Neill & Associates) have joined the board.

Campaigners using their cars and standing where work was set to take place have temporarily stopped Openreach from rolling out FTTP in Wennington Road, Southport.

nexfibre has published its quarterly update for its roll-out plan and confirmed the footprint is at 800,000 premises passed and ready for service.

Nexfibre has today announced a £1bn investment during 2024 into greenfield broadband infrastructure, following on from the comments from the CEO published earlier this week.

Virgin Media O2 and its PR teams have been busy for the last week, and the latest news to spin off the cable and fibre network to a wholesale platform creates another distinct before and after point.

Some of the villages on the outskirts Cambridge that don't have Gigabit services available should be able to see contractors working for CityFibre building full-fibre in the area.

In an interview with Zen CEO Richard Tang, the CEO of Nexfibre talks about the company's ambitions to compete with Openreach at a wholesale level.

The 1.2 Gbps and 1.8 Gbps GPON full fibre services from Openreach are set to launch fully on 1st April 2024.

The last month has seen a record amount of Openreach full-fibre spotted and mapped. The additional 496,224 premises breaks are previous record and is almost double the average monthly total.

We estimate there are about 5,000 premises with a similar amount of copper and no full-fibre options in the UK, so Openreach building out FTTP to this property is news.
