TVWS/5GHz

FTTC

§ It extends the reach of BT’s FTTC/FTTP programmes, to otherwise inaccessible spots

§ TVWS is just so powerful – reaching the places other people cannot reach

§ And it is just the beginning of the move to shared spectrum, for connectivity, and 5G, worldwide

§ It allows 100% guarantees – no exceptions! – at a very acceptable cost to the public purse

§ It fits perfectly with ScotGov’s commitment to Full Fibre
