What is Sky Full Fibre 300?
Sky Full Fibre 300 could be described as the company’s mid-tier full-fibre offering. It is ideal for households with fairly high broadband usage, providing a good connection throughout the house to all devices using it at the same time.
It is a new offering for Sky, where previously they had no gap between their packages that offered 145Mbps download speeds and 500Mbps.
Sky Full Fibre 300 sits perfectly in the middle of Full Fibre 150 and Full Fibre 500, providing ultrafast speeds that marks great value for money.
What is the speed of Sky Full Fibre 300?
Sky Full Fibre 300 boasts average download speeds of 300Mbps and average upload speeds of 47Mbps.
This makes Sky Ultrafast perfect for households with many devices that have fairly heavy broadband usage, such as multiple 4K streaming devices.
For gamers, this option is perfect for playing online as it will provide a strong and stable connection, while some of the bigger downloads won’t take as long.
As for working from home, Sky Ultrafast offers more than enough to have you working at your very best.
Does Sky Full Fibre 300 use FTTP?
Sky Full Fibre 300 utilises FTTP (fibre to the premises), which sees a strong fibre cable connection from the telephone exchange right through to the household.
This is the case across Sky’s full-fibre broadband range, allowing for connected households to get the fastest and most reliable speeds possible.
Is Sky Full Fibre 300 better than FTTC?

In using an FTTP connection, Sky Full Fibre 300 represents a fair step up from Sky's previous FTTC offerings, with faster speeds and even better reliability.
There is a slight downside to FTTP, in that is the fact that it still isn’t as widely available as FTTC yet. Where FTTC is accessible to over 98% of UK households, FTTP is still being rolled out by Openreach, the network that Sky pigbacks from to provide its broadband.
The Openreach rollout of FTTP is going strong and currently at around 60% of UK premises, with them stating an ambitious yet seemingly achievable goal of supplying an FTTP connection to at least 80% of UK premises by 2026.
