Alcatel-Lucent, BT Begin Trial Of G.fast In North-East England

Fri, 09th Oct 2015 08:17

LONDON (Alliance News) - Alcatel-Lucent and BT will today commence an extensive consumer trial of the ultra-broadband access G.fast technology in Gosforth in the north-east of England.

BT, Alcatel-Lucent and its Bell Labs research arm have played a pioneering development role in G.fast, which allows service providers to provide ultra-broadband Internet speeds in locations where fiber-optic connectivity deployment is difficult.

It also eliminates the need to rewire buildings and homes for fiber deployment. During the trial, G.fast will enable data speeds of up to 330 Mbps, delivered over copper infrastructure directly into premises.

Alcatel-Lucent's G.fast technology has already been in trials with more than 30 operators worldwide. The BT trial will cover up to 2000 homes in Gosforth, near Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and will last for six to nine months.

It follows a smaller but successful pilot conducted by BT and Alcatel-Lucent around Hethersett in Norfolk, earlier this year.

During the trial, customers will experience much faster broadband speeds and can benefit from improved performance on existing services. They will be able to access new services such as multiple simultaneous 4K TV channels, fast HD video downloads and streaming.
