About Broadband in Fair Green
Fair Green is in Mid and East Antrim. Full fibre broadband is available here, with typical download speeds of around 891 Mbps, well above the UK average of 69 Mbps. Most major providers cover the area, so there is a reasonable amount of competition on price.
Standard broadband runs over the copper phone network. Speeds depend on your distance from the telephone exchange and typically range from around 5 Mbps to 20 Mbps.
Superfast broadband (FTTC) uses a fibre optic cable to your street cabinet, then copper for the final stretch to your home. Most urban and suburban areas can get speeds of 35 to 80 Mbps.
Full fibre (FTTP) runs fibre optic cable all the way into your home. It is the fastest and most reliable option available, with speeds from 100 Mbps upwards.
What's Happening with Broadband in Fair Green?
Fair Green sits within the Mid and East Antrim council area of Northern Ireland, and residents here are in a strong position compared to much of the UK. Full fibre (FTTP) connectivity is available at speeds of around 891 Mbps, well ahead of the UK national gigabit availability figure of 89% and the 82% FTTP coverage rate recorded in Spring 2026.
Fibrus is the primary altnet driving full fibre rollout across this part of Northern Ireland. In May 2026, the provider confirmed it had surpassed 150,000 customers on its FTTP network, with more than 330,000 premises passed across Northern Ireland alone (source: ISPreview, May 2026). Fibrus is also actively building under a £34.6m Project Gigabit contract to connect a further 9,333 of the hardest-to-reach rural premises in Northern Ireland, having passed its first milestone of 1,593 premises as of May 2026. Openreach is also active in the area, providing an alternative route to full fibre for residents who want to shop with BT, Sky, or other Openreach-based providers.
No specific rollout announcements for Fair Green itself were found at the time of writing, but the area benefits from the broader Mid and East Antrim investment that has made gigabit broadband widely available here.
One change to be aware of: BT's PSTN copper telephone network is being switched off in January 2027. If anyone in Fair Green is still on a copper-based broadband or phone service, now is the time to check whether a full fibre upgrade is available at your address, as the old network will no longer be supported after that date.
