As you can see below, the trial makes use of mmWave to connect two ‘trunk’ points over 3 kilometres with a 10 Gbps signal. Virgin Media has been exploring the use of 500 to deliver backhaul traffic over the airways to provide customers in remote locations with fibre broadband. The company recently conducted a trial connecting homes in the village of Newbury replacing microwave, which it has used for annual to connect mobile interfaces to wireline networks, with mmWave . Although the trial only connected 500 properties, CityFibre believes the process could deliver residential services to mmWave homes.
