CityFibre, the UK’s pioneering wholesale full-fibre broadband provider, has introduced a game-changing service known as ‘True Gig.’ This innovative product offers blistering download speeds of 1.2 Gbps, empowering Internet Service Provider (ISP) partners to promote genuine 1 Gbps services. With ‘True Gig,’ CityFibre addresses the challenges faced by ISPs in advertising Gigabit-speed broadband to consumers, enabling them to deliver on their promises.
Enabling ISPs to Deliver True Gigabit Speeds
The telecommunications industry has long grappled with a discrepancy between advertised and actual broadband speeds. ISPs are often hindered by the requirement to substantiate that a substantial portion of their customer base receives the advertised Gigabit speed. As a result, many ISPs are compelled to offer slightly lower speeds, around 900 Mbps, instead of the full 1 Gbps to account for bandwidth overhead.
CityFibre’s revolutionary ‘True Gig’ service eliminates these limitations, empowering ISP partners to fulfill the promise of delivering genuine Gigabit-speed broadband. This offering, boasting 1.2 Gbps speeds, caters to ISPs with the necessary backhaul and in-premises equipment that can support such rapid connectivity.
Accessible and Affordable
What makes ‘True Gig’ even more compelling is its affordability. CityFibre is making this wholesale broadband product available at the same cost as its existing 1 Gbps service, ensuring accessibility to a broader customer base.
Symmetrical Speeds for Optimal Performance
For areas serviced by CityFibre’s advanced XGS-PON network, ‘True Gig’ provides symmetrical download and upload speeds. Symmetry is a hallmark of top-tier connectivity, offering optimal performance for both uploading and downloading data. In locations where XGS-PON network upgrades are pending, CityFibre offers an interim solution with 1 Gbps upload speeds, ensuring continuity and seamless service.
