A FIRST in Qatar, Ooredoo upgrades how people connect from Home with Fibre To The Room

Doha, Qatar

In a first for Qatar, Ooredoo - the leading national innovator in digital technology - has announced the upcoming readiness of cutting-edge technology Fibre to the Room (FTTR), a new revolutionary solution for home internet customers.

With FTTR, customers will be able to connect every single room in their home - even their majlis - to a superfast Fibre cable, resulting in up to 10x better coverage, a stable speed everywhere at home, zero blind spots, an upgraded quality for videos and gaming and more connected devices at maximum internet speed.

Home internet usage now demands higher and consistent speed, as well as lower latency: for working from home, HD+ live broadcast, 8K video streaming, several VR apps and games, smart home devices and more. Against this demanding backdrop, FTTR will upgrade the overall customer experience.

Sheikh Ali Bin Jabor Al Thani, Chief Executive Officer, Ooredoo Qatar, said: "We are thrilled to be leading the charge in digital innovation yet again by testing Fibre to the Room technology in Qatar. Our commitment to delivering the latest advancements in technology is unwavering, and we are excited to be bringing soon this revolutionary solution for our customers. With FTTR, we are taking a major step forward in delivering faster and more reliable internet to homes across the country. We look forward to seeing the transformative impact this technology will have on how our customers experience the digital world."

As Ooredoo's Fibre network connects more than 99% of households in Qatar, a substantial number of customers will be able to benefit from this new solution.

Ooredoo will be announcing soon the next phase of the project, bringing the solution to customer homes and helping them further upgrade their world.
