What is full fibre optics?

Fibre & Society

We have been consuming more and more data in the past decades.

More data means new technologies and Fibre is the most future-proof one available. Say goodbye to DSL and Cable!

Data consumption is increasing faster each day

The need for bandwidth has seen an explosive increase, and new services such as 4K streaming, virtual reality, and connected things at home are expected to accelerate the need even more in the coming years. ADSL or Cable is no longer enough. An investment in Fibre infrastructure will secure your home for the future.

Fibre makes life better, for everyone.

Everything is becoming more and more connected. Booking tickets, buying food and goods, managing your home, and contacting authorities. Today it is difficult to manage without a good internet connection. Make sure your home is properly connected to a future-proof fiber infrastructure.

Healthcare and educational services are increasingly delivered remotely.

Meeting your doctor via the Internet was science fiction just a few years ago, now millions of health care visits are being made online. School students do their schoolwork online and every fourth student is studying remotely online. Make sure you are properly connected to today's and the future's digital society.

Increase the value of your property

If you sell your house, most buyers will want it to have access to high-speed Internet. Ensure the future value of your property with a future-proof Fibre connection.

Compare

Compare the speed, stability and availability of Fibre with other options.

Extremely Fast

Up to 10,000 Mbit/s, limitless streaming of movies and music. Upload and download large files in seconds.
Very Stable

Very little downtime. Is not sensitive to distances and is not affected by the number of users online at the same time.
Available and Future-Proof

It takes a little bit of time to bring to you since it is infrastructure. Gives extremely high speeds, stable connectivity, and fits smart homes, streaming, gaming, and home businesses.

ADSL transfers data via phone lines. It is an older technology that is disappearing.

Slow

Up to 60 Mbit/s in unusual cases but usually less than 10 Mbit/s. Can work for regular level of music streaming and some movie streaming. When several people are connected at the same time performance can suffer.
Very Unstable

Sensitive to distances; the speed drops quickly the longer the distance is from the telecommunication station. Sensitive cables that often experience problems and require more frequent repairs.
Very High Availability

You can usually get it immediately if you have a regular phone line installed to your house. It might not be available in the future when the old networks are closed and upgraded.

Cable transfers data via cable-tv network and is the most common technology for high/speed connectivity.

Average Speed

From 200 Mbit/s up to 1000 Mbit/s, works well when streaming music and movies as well as downloading large files. If you are a gamer you will experience higher latency compared with Fiber. Upload speeds are usually only 10% of the download speeds.
Decent Stability

Pretty stable, but speed is affected by distance and low bandwidth. Sensitive cables that can experience problems and require more frequent repairs.
Low Availability

Is not available in most homes and is not a good investment for the future.

4G transfers data via radio signals on cellphone towers and you will usually pay for a certain amount of data per month.

Decent speed, but...

Streaming a movie with high-quality HD will quickly deplete your monthly data allowance.
Not always stable

Varying depending on how congested the mobile network is or how far away the tower is. If you live near the train or a major road, quality and accessibility may vary depending on the traffic.
Available

Easy to order but coverage can vary significantly.

5G transfers data via radio signals on cellphone towers or smaller sites, but will not be widely available for a few years.

Very Fast

Theoretical speeds up to 10-20 Gbit/s.
Unstable

Significant variation in coverage and performance. Will not penetrate regular walls.
Available Soon

Is only available in a few places at the moment, and very few of these are offering ”true” 5G. The theoretical speed of 5G can match that of fiber, but it is still far from being a widely tested and dependable technology. Will probably not be built outside of metropolitan areas.
