Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

National Broadband Plan: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Marcus Matthews:

Yes, it does not meet the red line. The Chairman can comment on the red line of the technicalities in respect of that. The second point is about the gigabit connections. All of the companies here provide wirelessly extremely high-speed connections of 1 Gbps plus. It is possible to provide up to 10 Gbps with broadband radio technology. Businesses that want that type of connectivity already have it and have had it for a very long time. I could have 150 Mbps connection if I want to do teleconferencing or to work from home.
