CityFibre are to install XGS-PON by default from April 2023 enabling 10Gbps symmetric options for customers.

The Openreach programme to build FTTP to some 25 million premises is now almost a third complete and they intend to keep accelerating the roll-out.

One of two thing has happened this month with the Openreach full fibre tracking, either we've caught a bit or they are building a lot more FTTP.

Norwich has gained a bit more full fibre as the CityFibre roll-out has started to go live and is being sold by Air Broadband.

Openreach has dropped another batch of locations that will see FTTP under its Fibre First programme.

Wolverhampton is the latest new urban area on our broadband maps showing where CityFibre wholesale services are available.

In the 30 days since our last summary we have set a new record for the amount of Openreach FTTP found breaking our previous record 302,074 premises by 10%.

23 days ago Openreach announced that its FTTP network was available to some 7 million premises and our tracking of this roll-out has hit the 7 million mark too.

We highlighted that we thought Openreach should have reached 7 million premises passed and two days later the largest UK FTTP operator has announced the milestone.

Another busy month for spotting the increased size of the Openreach FTTP footprint with 214,956 premises found.
