Openreach today announced the pilot pricing of new advanced installation options for independent broadband products from UK ISPs, which are technically referred to as Single-Order Generic Ethernet Access (SOGEA) products or G. Express over FTTC (VDSL2) lines. String. But it does not apply to families.

Just review it. SOGEA enables ISPs to sell physical hybrid fiber optic lines for broadband only (that is, not everyone needs fixed voice lines today, and analog voice services will be cancelled from December 2025), and anyone who still needs voice services will need them Use Voice-IP (VoIP) style solutions-usually as an optional product for your ISP (for example, BT is implemented through their digital voice service).

Currently, standard engineers installed on SOGEA services often cost ISP 83.60 GBP + VAT, while their premium products increase to 103.70 GBP-including some additional testing and work. If you need to install a new SOGEA Line, the standard fee for the ISP is £92.60 and the premium fee is £112.70.

In contrast, the new SOGEA and SOGfast premium hosting installation (pilot pricing) will cost £213.60 (rent depends on the selected bandwidth variant), which increases to £232.60 if you need to install it as a new line.

The reason for the significant price difference is that the product is designed to address more "complex needs of commercial and public sector customers", which often exceeds the needs of typical household users (although some non-standard households may benefit from this as well).

➤ A wiring distance of up to 100 meters, from the Openreach network to the location of the site.

➤ On existing cable trays running horizontally or vertically using cable ties (may include crossing multiple floors).

➤ Pass through removable and accessible ceiling or floor tiles.

➤ Use field wiring (structured) to provide services.

➤ Connect to structured wiring in an existing building, for example in a communication room.

➤ X mark the location to indicate preference for NTE or ONT installation location.

➤ Unattended installation-Speed ​​test results in KCI 3 to confirm installation.

➤ On-site introduction and safety courses.

➤ Able to install more than 100m in length, and apply TRC [time-related cost] to pay for extra work beyond 100m-the usual TRC belt and pricing apply.

Assuming everything goes well during the trial phase, the product release will follow.

I was completely confused by the whole network connection communication technology. Can’t connect, can’t get the correct technology, still have to pay, even can’t get the latest Internet phone TV connection but still pay to unplug my indoor square box, can’t even enter my own email address in my own home, then I pay for forwarding How about technology

I hate openreach. Friends of the new version have a pure broadband method that is faster than the openreach network. I really want to move so that I don’t have to deal with any providers who use them.

It’s really faster in new builds-if you build more than 30 plots, the speed will be the same. I think developers and infrastructure providers are more commercial. Sod payement is used to pay developers for newly built infrastructure. cost

Generally speaking, fiber optic networks are much more reliable. OR's fiber products are very good, as it should be. OR's copper wire-based network can be easily hit, and if there is a mistake, it will be very painful.

What is it useless-maybe what you think openreach is useless may have nothing to do with openreach, everything depends on your preferred service provider

We have openreach after we moved (there are no virgins in the village). I did not encounter any problems, it is more reliable at 60meg, WiFi coverage is wider, and less up and down than the original 1gb we used before. To figure it out

Openreach has nothing to do with your WiFi "range"/range.

Taekwondo? Let me be straightforward, this is BT touting FTTC in 2021, really?

@lugz Taekwondo? Let me be straightforward, it's 2021, don't you realize that most of the largest ISP's revenue is derived from selling FTTC-based products? Really?

I just recommended some FTTC packages to a friend who moved into a new house.

Ask which one they chose in the end. They chose ADSL. I kid you not.

How can ADSL still go on sale? Especially when there are Virgin and FTTP/FTTC on the street.

No, it is a product requested by Openreach. They didn't sell anything to end users because they didn't sell it to us. This will not be arbitrarily imagined, it will be required by some ISPs. When 70% of Openreach networks can access FTTC, it doesn't make much sense to just ignore it.

Buggerlugz will never be satisfied with anything. Calling himself an expert, knows nothing.

Once they get fiber to totnes road to Paignton (close to the beach park), I will be happy

I live 200 yards from the Gree roadside box and can't even lower 5meg and 1meg.

Since I was 9 years old, copper cables have not been replaced...

I have to use my mobile phone data all the time, thank God for providing unlimited data.
