VMO2 commercially launches XGS PON service

Virgin Media O2 has begun selling broadband services via its new, 10 Gbps-capable XGS PON network.
The UK cableco began a commercial trial of the technology with select customers last November.
“These trials proved successful so now we are taking the next step forward in our network evolution and starting to sell services powered by the latest fibre technology, known as XGS-PON, much more widely,” wrote VMO2’s chief technology officer, Jeanie York, in a blog post on Thursday.
