How does Full Fibre broadband work?
It can be confusing when selecting Wi-Fi; the sheer amount of broadband types can be overwhelming, and how can you separate your Fibre broadband from your Full Fibre broadband? The RadioTimes.com team are on hand to simplify this for you.
There are three types of broadband in the UK: ADSL (asymmetric digital subscriber line), which uses copper cables to a street-level cabinet or junction box, and copper cables to your home; FTTC (fibre to the cabinet), which uses fibre optic cables to the cabinet, but relies on a copper cable from the cabinet to your home; FTTP (fibre to the premises), which uses a fibre optic cable to the cabinet and to the house.
Full Fibre broadband is called Full Fibre because it uses a fibre optic cable to the cabinet and from the cabinet to your house, in comparison to Fibre broadband, which is only part fibre optic cable.
At this moment in time, Full Fibre broadband is currently the fastest broadband service UK residents can have.
