PRESS RELEASE

More performance for symmetrical broadband connections

New products for PŸUR Ethernet Households in Hamburg

- 20, 200 and 400 Mbit/s with symmetrical bandwidth

- Flex tariffs with short contract duration and attractive promotions

- Broadband, Telephony and HDTV starting at EUR5 per month

- FRITZ!Box displacing multi-device solution at Ethernet connections

Berlin / Hamburg, 6 November 2019. The Tele Columbus Group upgrades 30,000 apartments in Hamburg, connected via fibre Ethernet-connection. The available broadband speeds and TV products have been aligned with the clear PŸUR product range consisting of Flex and promotional tariffs. Furthermore, the formerly three network termination devices are displaced by the FRITZ!Box 7490.

The Tele Columbus Group has connected around 30,000 households in Hamburg via fibre Ethernet. An ethernet plug forms the passive network termination point in the apartments. By unifying the broadband speeds to 20, 200 and 400 Mbit/s, the strengths of the fibre connections can now be fully utilised. In contrast to typical cable tariffs, the Ethernet plugs in Hamburg deliver symmetrical bandwidths with same speeds for Upload and Download. With the unification, the new promotional tariffs with 24 months contract duration and EUR5 sticker price are now available in Hamburg as well. So far, three devices were used in the connected households: Telephony adapter, router and switch. From now onwards, new customers receive the FRITZ!Box 7490 combining all functions in one device. Existing customers can upgrade to the FRITZ!Box for an extra EUR5 per month.
