ffeibr extends full fibre network into Cardiff city centre using South Wales Metro

ffeibr has reached a major milestone in the rollout of digital infrastructure in Wales, extending its full fibre network from the Core Valley Lines into Cardiff city centre and through to Cardiff Bay.

The expansion builds on fibre routes developed alongside the South Wales Metro, creating a high-capacity network designed to support businesses, public services and digital operations across the region.

The new infrastructure provides ultrafast upload and download speeds, improved reliability for high-volume data use and resilient connectivity to multiple data centres and cloud services. It is also designed to support content creation and other data-intensive applications.

By extending the network into the capital, the project strengthens connectivity between Cardiff and surrounding Valley communities, creating more direct access to economic and public service hubs.

ffeibr operates on a purpose-led model, with profits reinvested into the Welsh public sector through Transport for Wales, supporting wider infrastructure and service improvements.

Guy Reiffer, Managing Director at ffeibr, said: “Extending our full-fibre network into the heart of Cardiff is a major step forward for digital infrastructure in Wales. This is more than just connectivity – it’s about creating the foundations for innovation, economic growth, and opportunity across the region.

“Thanks to the dedication of our teams and our Welsh build-partners Gforce Telecoms, businesses and public services can now benefit from high capacity, future ready fibre built with Wales’ long-term success in mind.”

Ginty Foster, Chief Executive of Gforce Telecoms, added: “We at GFT are proud to partner with ffeibr on this project in the heart of Cardiff.

“This is a targeted, collaborative effort to address the infrastructure gaps in our capital. This is the beginning of a long-term partnership delivering superfast broadband in Wales.

“A massive diolch yn fawr to every member of the Gforce and ffeibr teams who worked tirelessly to make this happen – here’s to the future.”
