5Gbps Freedom Fibre in Stone

Stone is a small Staffordshire town on the Trent between Stoke and Stafford, and Freedom Fibre's initial build into ST12 is bringing XGS-PON to an area that has historically been limited to cabinet-based fibre. Olilo's 5Gbps tier is the symmetric, no-throttling option for the early wave of eligible premises.

Early coverage is concentrated around the town centre and the residential streets near the canal basin.
