Broadband speeds in ME1

Share of ME1 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 839 postcodes in the district.

Gigabit availability in ME1 sits at 80.9%, but notably backed by zero full fibre deployment. Cable networks supply the gigabit capacity entirely. This means ME1 residents depend on coaxial infrastructure for their fastest speeds, a contrast to fibre-heavy postcodes elsewhere. Fixed wireless covers 3.3% of addresses, offering an alternative access path. The speed distribution shows 83.3% achieving gigabit-class capacity, 14.1% in the 30-300 Mbps band, and 1.4% below the superfast minimum. A thin tail of just 1.4% postcodes sits below 30 Mbps, a mark of Medway's mature cable investment.
