PropertyPeople Over 12,300 premises in Roscommon now covered by high-speed broadband
Eir, Ireland’s largest telecommunications provider, has announced it has passed a record one million homes and businesses across Ireland with its new high-speed fibre-to-thehome (FFTH) network.
The announcement was made at an industry event this week at The Exo, which was attended by Minister for Communications Eamon Ryan, eir CEO Oliver Loomes, and David McRedmond, eir chairman.
In Roscommon, the roll-out programme is already 65 per cent complete, giving local communities and businesses access to internet speeds of up to 10gbps, roughly 100 times faster than the average connection.
eir has committed to rolling out its Gigabit Broadband network to 1.9 million front doors, or 84 per cent of homes and businesses in Ireland, by the end of 2026.
The project, it says, will be completed two years ahead of the Government’s target to achieve nationwide high-speed broadband coverage of speeds in excess of 1,000 MB per second.
It is expected that National Broadband Ireland, which is also rolling out at speed, will deliver fibre connections to the remaining 16 per cent of premises in the country by 2028, resulting in total fibre coverage before the end of the decade.
