SoGEA
SOGEA is the latest broadband offering from BT, designed to address a very large, anticipated demand of broadband users, post the big switch off of the PSTN network in 2025.
Single Order Generic Ethernet Access is a broadband service that doesn’t require a telephone line to activate internet connectivity. It’s reliable, fast and a very cost-effective alternative to traditional leased line connectivity.
Here are some of the benefits:
- Fast, Reliable and Quick Turnaround
- Up to 80Mb Download Speed
- Up to 20Mb Upload Speed
- Widely Available
- Office Hours Support
- No Phone Line Needed
This product is the replacement for FTTC. It’s a perfect connectivity solution for remote workers, low bandwidth SMEs and satellite sites, only needing a stable connection for up to 10 low bandwidth users.
FTTP
‘Fibre to the Premises’, generally referred to as ‘FTTP’, is a great alternative to a traditional broadband products such as ADSL2+ and FTTC.
As the name suggests, this product is delivered over a fibre access-tail and routes back from the customer premises to the cabinet and then back to the local exchange, all using a high-speed fibre optic connection, giving a much greater bandwidth speed than any broadband product.
FTTP is a High Bandwidth Broadband product and available in the following variants:
- FTTP 1000/115Mbps – (up to 1Gb download speed and 115Mb upload)
- FTTP 550/75Mbps – (up to 550Mb download speed and 75Mb upload)
- FTTP 330/50Mbps – (up to 330Mb download speed and 50Mb upload)

- FTTP 80/20Mbps – (up to 80Mb download speed and 20Mb upload)
The above speeds for each of the FTTP variants are only indicative and not guaranteed. FTTP service comes with an SLA of best endeavours and no fix time guarantee.
