Exciting times ahead

Great discussion this afternoon on the CTO panel moderated by the CTO of SIRO Ireland and board member of FTTH Council Europe Suzanne Tracey with CTO’s from Unsere Grüne Glasfaser, Openreach, Altice Group and nexfibre. The need for Open Access Networks, subscriber experiences and balancing the demand for increased bandwidth while reducing power requirements at the OLT and overall carbon footprint were just some of the great topics covered. #ftth2024 Indigo

Let's wrap up our series of C-Suite interviews with some leading voices from the FTTH Conference 2024 with this conversation with Jean Marc Harion, Chief Executive Officer of the PLAY Group. How's the #FTTH rollout progressing in Poland? Jean Marc Harion explains why Poland is an unfair and unbalanced market for #fibre, with many areas overlapped by fixed #broadband operators while a 40% of households are still without access to any wireline broadband #connection. Following the acquisition of the largest cable company in the market, the PLAY Group set up a series of goals to improve and expedite fibre #conectivity across Poland and the Baltics. With the aim of making the infrastructure available to all the operators - as Jean Marc commented - PLAY Group is rapidly expanding the network starting with 3,7 additional million households, with the ambition to reach the 6 million by the end of decade.

Congrats to Virgin Media (VMO2) on unveiling the UK's first residential 2Gbps broadband package – Gig2 Full Fibre. 🌐💻 I take pride in being a small part of these groundbreaking advancements that make Virgin Media a pioneer among major UK internet providers. From GPON to XGpon, and now symmetrical XGS PON, we're witnessing remarkable advancements in broadband tech. While celebrating these changes, it's disheartening to still see FTTP/VDSL sold as full Fibre. Hoping for a swift transition from GPON to XGS PON, and what makes it promising is that this transition is facilitated by a simple hardware upgrade. Moreover, due to the backward compatibility of XGS PON, existing customers won't even know their network is ready for XGS PON, ensuring very minimal downtime. 🌐💡 #VirginMedia #BroadbandInnovation #XGSPON #FibreOptics #fttx #fibre #telecommunications #FPL #fibrepartnerlimited #comex2000

Ingram Valley Safari’s gigabit connectivity has been transformed thanks to Commsworld and Alncom Commsworld undertook a complete overhaul of backhaul capacity to remote communities, with enhanced speeds the result of linking connections to Commsworld’s nationwide ultra-fast Optical Core Network. In turn Alncom strengthened its position as a rural broadband leader by delivering gigabit-capable broadband to people even in the most challenging of remote areas directly to their premises. One rural business that has benefited from this transformation is Ingram Valley Safari: https://lnkd.in/e3rNRDKt
