Here are the new Municipalities in the white areas covered by FTTH and FWA fibre: there are 139!

Work continues Open Fiber for the project Ultra-wide band (BUL), and in recent days new municipalities have been added in the Fraternal areasor those areas with low population density otherwise also called White Areas (If you’re looking for a new fiber operator, check out our coverage and price tracker.)

Infratel is the company of the Ministry of Economic Development (MISE) which promotes the creation and integration of infrastructures for the use of internet services at Ultra Wide Band in areas with low population density or in any case in the areas of the country where private operators have not considered it useful to invest in bringing fibre.

Winner of the three BUL project tenders, Open Fiber was commissioned by Brother to cable Italy down to the small municipalities to expand fiber optic coverage throughout the country and thus reduce the digital divide.

There are two technologies used: FTTH (Fiber To The Home), for a connection of up to 10 Gigabit per second, and, where not available, FWA (Fixed Wireless Access), the hybrid system that combines connections to fixed network and connections wireless.

With the update from a couple of days ago, Open Fiber added 139 new municipalities, 51 in FTTH e 88 in FWA, but there are some clarifications to be made. First of all, the fact that a municipality appears in the list does not imply its immediate availability to operators (at least to those operating in the White Areas), so you may have to wait a few days before the operator’s website confirms its coverage.

You will also notice that some municipalities are indicated in italics, which means that they are not yet tied to the national network (partial FTTH opening).

This implies that when you will request the coverage verification you will have to wait more for link activation.

Having clarified these aspects, let’s see the list of the new Municipalities.
