Broadband speeds in IP27
Share of IP27 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 499 postcodes in the district.
65.2% of IP27 postcodes reach gigabit speeds, placing it among the highest in the Breckland subsample. Superfast covers 93.4%, indicating near-universal modern access. Only 3.3% fall below 10 Mbps, and 1.8% lack Universal Service Obligation minimum access, both excellent rates. The postcode's strength is its consistency: 28.2% sit in the reliable 30-300 Mbps band while the majority sit above. This distribution means most households enjoy either gigabit or strong superfast service as their baseline. Universal Service Obligation shortfalls affect just 1.8%, a manageable share. IP27's modern cable or fibre plant has achieved strong penetration comparable to the best Breckland zones. Households here can assume infrastructure investment has been genuine and detailed. Few postcodes will require manual intervention or complaint processes. The speed-band distribution is healthy: gigabit available for those willing to pay, solid superfast for everyone else.
