Our 10 gigabit per second (Gbps) residential and SME fibre broadband trial started connecting customers in mid-March 2019. Learn more from our resident expert, Kurt Rodgers…
 

The demand for greater internet data bandwidth is relentless. Ultra-high definition video, creative media services, advanced gaming, increased home working and a dramatic proliferation of connected devices in our homes are all contributing to the need for greater capacity.

Chorus' 10Gbps service was built in collaboration with Nokia using its XGS-PON fibre solution.

This is a next-generation network technology that supports fibre services of up to 10Gbps downstream and upstream, deployed over Chorus' existing nationwide fibre broadband infrastructure.

The new service co-exists with today's fibre services making it a natural evolution for those looking for even faster plans with an easy upgrade path.

Here is more information on what’s happening with the trial.
