Analyst Praises Government's 2Mbit Broadband Plan

Research firm Point Topic has come out in support of the UK government's proposals for a universal broadband servicedelivering at least 2Mbit/s downstream to every home.

The telephone network will require investment to bring fibre to many of BT's street cabinets, in order to adequately support the introduction of this Universal Service Commitment.



FTTC or fibre-to-the-cabinet, is the key next-generation access technology which will support download speeds of 40Mbit/s or more," explained Tim Johnson, chief analyst at Point Topic.
