BT promises 500Mbps broadband across the UK but it could take a decade to arrive

UK telecoms provider, BT has announced plans to deliver broadband speeds of up to 500Mbps to homes and small business across the UK. It says it’ll achieve that by using G.fast, a standard for local loops shorter than 250 meters which can offer speeds of up to 1Gbps. The company will begin testing G.fast in two pilot locations this summer with broader deployments expected to start in 2016/17 if the trials are successful.
