The 25G test, carried out last month in central London demonstrated symmetrical speeds (both download and upload) more than double those currently delivered on the same full fibre network.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLondon is one of the most influential cities in the world, and yet it lags behind in terms of broadband speeds, especially for businesses,\u201d said G.Network\u2019s CEO, Kevin Murphy. \u201cG.Network are changing this. We\u2019re playing an important part in the UK government\u2019s Project Gigabit by rolling out our full fibre network across 13 central London boroughs. We\u2019re futureproofing the capital and this test shows that our network can provide speeds that future generations of business will demand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>G.Network\u2019s CTO, Paul Weir said: \u201cXantaro and Nokia are key partners for us and I\u2019m pleased we\u2019ve been able to use their latest technology to demonstrate even higher symmetrical speeds on our FTTP network. These high-bandwidth, symmetrical technologies are the smart alternative to expensive fibre leased-lines for London\u2019s businesses, and prove that our existing network is futureproof\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Xantaro\u2019s CTO, Steve Kingdom said, \u201cWorking with our altnet customers in the UK, we always offer the best industry solutions to meet our customer requirements. Nokia\u2019s 25G PON technology is perfect for high-bandwidth consuming businesses in London and across the UK and this trial has proven that forward-looking network operators can bring next generation technology to companies across the country\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Nokia\u2019s CEO UK&amp;I, Phil Siveter said, \u201c25G PON is realising the future of fibre today and provides key benefits over and above those provided by current networks. It has huge capacity and is simple to install into existing access technology used in exchanges, data centres, businesses and campuses. Using 25G PON enables service providers to quickly boost the capacity of their existing fibre assets, seizing high bandwidth opportunities today and providing the scale needed for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>G.Network is an independent broadband provider that\u2019s upgrading the capital\u2019s outdated infrastructure from copper to 100% fibre connections. G.Network connects London\u2019s residents and businesses to ultrafast, reliable broadband with speeds starting at 100Mbps, all the way up to 10Gbps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>London broadband provider G.Network and technology provider Xantaro test next-generation full fibre broadband using Nokia\u2019s latest equipment A successful test of the latest development in full fibre broadband, which could help to bring London\u2019s business broadband up to speed, has recently taken place in central London.
