DMSL has welcomed the move by Openreach to expand its G-fast broadband pilot scheme to more areas of the UK, saying it will bring more opportunities to resellers.
The expansion will bring speeds of up to 330Mbps to more than one million premises in 26 more areas across the UK by the end of the year.
DMSL MD John Carter said: "Openreach is effectively doubling the size of the project and we'd expect interest from SMBs to at least double as well. It's a colossal opportunity for resellers."
Openreach plans to make ultrafast broadband services available to 12 million UK homes and businesses by 2020, using a mix of 1Gbps FTTP and 330Mbps hybrid-fibre G.fast, with the latter expected to provide a large majority of services.
