Ooredoo announced the VIP launch of its new 10Gbps Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) service at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
From February 25, Ooredoo’s 10Gpbs fibre speed has been made available for selected VIP customers in Doha, as the company works to deliver a seamless service ahead of a wider commercial roll-out planned for later in the year.
The new service provides the fastest Internet speeds ever made available for homes in Qatar and puts the county on the map as one of the first in the region and the world to offer 10Gbps fibre speeds to consumers.
Ooredoo successfully trialled 10Gbps fibre speeds in December 2016 and is now expanding the service as part of a nationwide roll-out.
“We’re delighted to be officially launching our 10Gpbs Fibre service for Qatar at Mobile World Congress. This week is all about demonstrating Ooredoo’s data experience leadership, and we continue to set new milestones by expanding and enhancing the Ooredoo Supernet for mobile and fibre customers,” said Waleed Al Sayed, Chief Executive Officer, Ooredoo Qatar.
Currently the 10Gpbs package, which costs QR7,500 per month, is only available for select customers. As well as incredible speeds and seamless connectivity, the package includes the award-winning Ooredoo tv service. Ooredoo’s new 10Gbps plan will enable speeds of up to 10Gbps on Ooredoo Fibre, ten times the current fastest fibre speeds in Qatar.
