Britain’s BT unveils ‘Equinox 2’ wholesale fibre offer

LONDON: Britain’s BT on Wednesday unveiled a new wholesale fibre offer designed to encourage broadband providers like Sky, TalkTalk and Vodafone to move customers from slow copper connections to ultrafast end-to-end fibre.

BT, which is building Britain’s biggest fibre-to-the-premises network, offered internet service providers (ISPs) discounts last year in return for connecting a majority of new lines to its fibre.
