Telekom rolls out 100Mbps broadband to 832,000 more homes

Telekom Deutschland, the domestic fixed and mobile operating unit of Deutsche Telekom (DT), has enabled VDSL vectoring for a further 832,000 households over the past four weeks. Households in the newly-upgraded areas are now able to access maximum down/upload speeds of 100Mbps/40Mbps. The speed increases were made possible through the operator’s IP conversion and the rollout of vectoring technology. From the second half of 2018, Telekom will begin deployment of super vectoring to enable bandwidths of up to 250Mbps, with the firm stating it will be able to boost 95% of 100Mbps households up to 250Mbps by late-2019.
