Traditional - FTTP (fibre to the premises) Technology

FTTP aka FTTH is the holy grail of broadband services offering 100Mb or even Gigabit speeds. FTTP is far more limited than FTTC. Openreach has a goal of delivering FTTP to 10 million premises by 2025, but it will be many years before access is widespread.

The network is a Passive Optical Network (PON) using unpowered 32-way splitters connecting on to 12-way manifolds supporting a group of properties. Initially there are no more than 6 premises connected to a manifold.
