What is Fiber to the Room?
Fiber to the Room — FTTR — extends fiber beyond your main router to the rooms where you actually use the internet. A main gateway connects to small room units over ultra-thin optical fiber, and each room unit creates fast, local Wi-Fi. Together they work as one seamless network.
Why Wi-Fi struggles in bigger homes
- Thick walls and floors — concrete, brick and slabs weaken Wi-Fi signals room by room.
- Multiple floors — upstairs bedrooms, terraces and studies are often far from the router.
- Many devices — phones, TVs, laptops and smart devices all compete for the same signal.
- Wireless extenders — repeaters share bandwidth over the air, so speeds drop at every hop.
How FTTR works
01
Main gateway
Your fiber connection arrives at a main FTTR gateway, just like today's router.
02
Fiber to each room
Hair-thin fiber is laid neatly along skirting, corners or existing conduits to the rooms you choose.
03
Room units
A compact unit in each room delivers strong Wi-Fi and wired ports right where you need them.
04
One seamless network
Devices move between rooms without dropping calls or games, managed as a single Wi-Fi network.
FTTR compared with mesh Wi-Fi
| Wireless mesh | Fiber to the Room | |
|---|---|---|
| Link between units | Wi-Fi, shared over the air | Dedicated fiber |
| Speed in far rooms | Drops with walls and hops | Close to full plan speed |
| Latency for gaming & calls | Varies | Low and consistent |
| Many devices at once | Can congest | Each room has its own access point |
| Installation | Plug-in units | Discreet fiber laid by our engineers |
