He said BT's fibre options – both the fibre to the cabinet (FTTC) service currently being rolled out and the fibre to the home (FTTH) expected to launch next year – are a laughing stock among business fibre providers.
Daniell believes that neither BT nor Virgin should be calling their services fibre, because both rely on older technologies to deliver from the cabinet to the end user.
