Rural Fibre Co uses Fibre to the Premises, also called FTTP. This is a type of internet connection where a fibre optic line runs all the way to your home or business. It is the most reliable and future friendly way to deliver fast internet.
Our network is built using a system called a Passive Optical Network. This means there are no powered cabinets or active equipment in the street. Light travels along the fibre from our exchange to your property with very little loss. This makes the network stable, efficient and easy to maintain.
Because the connection is pure fibre, it supports very high speeds and handles busy periods well. It is also more resistant to weather issues than older copper based technologies.
If you want to order a service on our fibre network, you will do that through Splice Internet. They will provide your modem, your plan options and your technical support. Rural Fibre Co looks after the fibre in the ground and the equipment that brings the connection to your building.
