Telkom opens fibre trial for DSL customers

Communication services provider Telkom’s digital subscriber line (DSL) customers will, from Tuesday, have the opportunity to test out the JSE-listed group’s fibre network in a two-month trial. The trial would see more than 11 000 DSL users migrate from their copper-based 2 Mb/s, 4 Mb/s and 8 Mb/s DSL connectivity products to an equivalent fibre-based service to experiment with the group’s Boltspeed 10 Mb/s and 20 Mb/s fibre products for free.
