Broadband speeds in EX9
Share of EX9 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 310 postcodes in the district.
EX9 is solidly well-served across 310 postcodes. Gigabit (300+ Mbps) reaches 63.4%, with only minimal wireless technology at 0.2%. The near-total absence of wireless suggests that local gigabit comes entirely from wired infrastructure (cable and fibre). Superfast (30+ Mbps) reaches 96.7%, with only 0.7% below 30 Mbps and 0.3% below 10 Mbps. The speed profile is clean and strongly wired: 63.4% gigabit, 33.3% superfast (30-100 Mbps), 0.7% slower. Real-world gigabit performance exceeds 300 Mbps. Coverage is complete and reliable. For postcodes outside the gigabit band, expect 50-100 Mbps performance. The wired infrastructure dominance makes EX9 predictable and dependable.
