BT installed FTTC in my area ?


[link to this post] 		 
Is that BT FTTC installed ?

If yes to both, it mean my exchange Cuckoo Oak could be the next roll out plan by BT later this year ?

It is late but think they are not openreach based, look too thin for FTTC cabs

The pole next to it is the obvious clue.

It'll be a mobile relay from another mast or one that has a fibre feed in to it. As you say, too thin to be FTTC cabs.

Do you think BT will bring FTTC to my area soon or no chance ?

Their is still the final announcement to come from Openreach, so your exchange may be their but more likely to be upgraded via the BDUK project for your area.

I think my council had withdrawal BDUK (Telford & Wrekin Council) from government. I don't know why is this ? My exchange will never get FTTC for the next 5 years and I just know it.

The pole next to it. At the top is it vaguely like this? Both are phone masts

http://s0.geograph.org.uk/photos/06/07/060712_8c4af4...

Notice in the photo next to the mast is green boxes looking just like the ones you've taken pics of.

If so it's a mobile phone mast (as has been suggested) and that green box is for whichever mobile network company is operating the telephone mast.

Their is a news item from Telford and Wrekin council back in January

http://www.telford.gov.uk/press/article/1123/council...

Has been no more news from Telford or BDUK, its possible that BDUK will press ahead and deliver a soultion for Telford and Wrekin but have to wait and see what happens.

Why it taking so long hear nothing since January. I bet Telford Council don't want to spend on broadband ? They did pulled out of BDUK.
