Summary
FTTP means fibre to the premises. It is the strongest fixed broadband option to look for before moving because the fibre connection runs all the way to the home rather than stopping at a street cabinet.
Definition
FTTP, or fibre to the premises, is a fixed broadband connection where fibre optic cable runs directly to the home or building. In practice, installation usually involves an engineer bringing fibre from the local network to the property, agreeing a route for the cable, fitting an external connection point where needed, and installing an internal optical network terminal for the router to connect to. It usually gives more stable performance than copper based services, but an address can still be delayed by access, wayleave, network capacity, build staging or new build address validation issues.
