nexfibre’s network reach has expanded to 1,557,000 premises ready for service and is on track to pass the two million milestone by the end of the year.
Hyperoptic is now connecting more than 300,000 customers across the UK to gigabit-capable full fibre.
The altnet’s network now passes more than 1.4 million homes across 64 towns and cities in the UK.
Early deployments, starting with the UK’s first residential gigabit connection in Wandsworth in 2011, were in multi-dwelling units. Since then, continued growth has come from connecting new build developments and residential streets in densely populated areas.
Hyperoptic’s Founder and CEO Dana Tobak said: “The most important job we have is to connect customers – that’s how we show people across the UK that there’s a better way for broadband to be done.”
The altnet aims to reach 500,000 customers and two million homes passed, maintaining market-leading penetration and excellent customer experience as the company scales.
