In today’s world, superfast broadband is essential for home based businesses / workers and for accessing online digital content such as streaming services like BBC iPlayer without buffering. In 2017, Redgrove Park (via the Management Company) made a significant investment (nearly £30,000) to maximise Broadband speeds throughout the estate. This entailed contracting with BT Openreach to install a new (‘FTTC’ – Fibre To The Cabinet) fibre cabinet at the entrance to the estate (at the bottom of the drive). This has reduced the distance between BT’s fibre network and the existing Redgrove Park copper telephone network to the shortest possible distance thus providing the fastest attainable FTTC Broadband Speeds (between 54 and 80Mbps).
Potential download speeds throughout the estate are as follows:
To take advantage of these speeds, residents must purchase a ‘Fibre’ broadband contract though a provider such as BT.
