Infinity Broadband - Fibre To The Cabinet (FTTC)
Find out more about Infinity Broadband, BT's new Fibre to the Cabinet broadband infrastructure.
What is it?
Infinity Broadband is the marketing name for BritishTelecom's new Fibre To The Cabinet (FTTC) broadband infrastructure.
FTTC involves BT laying a fibre optic cable to the cabinet in (or near) your street. This allows them to offer much higher broadband speeds (both download and upload) than traditional broadband over your phone line.
Top speeds will initially be up to 40Mb download and up to 10Mb upload.
Sounds great, can I get it?
BT are rolling out FTTC over the next few years. To find out if you can get it now in your area use our broadband checker.| Package | Speed | Usage | Contract | Monthly Cost |
