What is fiber?
An optic fiber connection is a flexible, transparent fiber connection made of glass or plastic, which permits transmission of data (in the form of light) over long distances at higher bandwidths than copper wire cables.
Connected to fiber TELBO is able to offer a more stable connection and new services such as HD TV and super high speed internet up to 500 Mbps.
Fiber to the home project
In 2015 TELBO has started the roll out of an island wide ‘Fiber to the Home’ project (FttH). In an earlier stage several locations such as Bona Bista, Las Palmas, Santa Barbara and Bon Bida Apartments already have been connected to the fiber network.
At the moment TELBO has fiber optic in more than 70% of the island.
