Broadband speeds in CB22
Share of CB22 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 581 postcodes in the district.
Gigabit networks serve 77.8% of postcodes via cable infrastructure across the district. About one household in five is limited to the 30 to 300 Mbps band, which remains adequate for streaming and remote work. Just over 1% of postcodes fall below 10 Mbps, a small but notable shortfall. Universal Service Obligation coverage is nearly complete, with only 0.2% of postcodes unserved by any provider. Superfast availability reaches 96.5% across the sector, indicating reliable baseline speeds for most addresses. The remaining gap between superfast and gigabit suggests mature but unevenly rolled out cable networks, typical of suburban Cambridge zones.
