A project to deliver a 5G Fixed Wireless Network in Tipperary is continuing to expand across the county.

The latest milestone from Irish broadband provider, Imagine Network Services, sees a further high-capacity broadband transmission hub switched on.

There are 84,285 premises in Tipperary of which the Irish provider already provides immediate connectivity to over 58,500 homes and businesses across the Premier County with 77% of this connectivity being within the NBP intervention area or those properties that are in urgent need of better broadband.

Homes and businesses that need better broadband can check their Eircode for coverage at imagine.ie.

Imagine's latest news comes as the company continues to receive strong demand for its service with the Irish provider continuing to win fans amongst its customers with over 60% of new subscribers calling to be connected being referred from existing users of its service.

Sandra Dinan, who heads up the Connecting Communities Team, commented: "The continued rapid expansion of our exclusive 5G Fixed Wireless Network along with our extensive coverage is a game changer, not only for the people of Tipperary but for all of regional and rural Ireland. Now more than ever, people need consistent and reliable broadband and our continued investment in the county will see our service match a level of performance in Tipperary that Seamus Callanan would be proud of.

"Ireland's rural communities need better broadband now which is why we are seeing such demand for our service and why we will continue to invest and focus all our efforts on the rapid expansion of our 5G Fixed Broadband Network. Our network can be deployed in these poor broadband areas within a matter of weeks ensuring we continue to meet this demand and bring high-speed broadband to the families and businesses that need better broadband now."
