Broadband speeds in PO32
Share of PO32 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 249 postcodes in the district.
Gigabit reaches 88.6% of the small island postcode PO32, an impressive concentration for an island location. The speed distribution is favourable: 88.6% at 300 Mbps-plus, 6.3% at 30-300 Mbps. However, 3.1% fall below 10 Mbps, a higher vulnerability share than gigabit-dense mainland areas but reasonable for island periphery. Superfast coverage of 95% indicates solid backbone infrastructure, with only 5% sitting outside the 30 Mbps floor entirely. This postcode reflects island infrastructure targeting population hubs and travel corridors. Most residents enjoy strong options; a small tail in truly remote areas may require alternative technologies. Cable clustering around core settlements creates a two-tier system.
