OXG Fiber GmbH Expands Fiber Optic Network in Dortmund's Brackel District
Fibre optics expansion initiates in Brackel district of Dortmund, under the supervision of OXG
In an exciting development for the digital landscape of Dortmund, OXG Fiber GmbH is set to expand its fiber optic network to the Brackel district. This expansion will bring significant improvements to the area's internet connectivity, with speeds of up to 1 Gbit/s and beyond.
Expansion Details
The expansion will cover approximately 64,500 households in the neighbourhoods of Asseln-Wickede and Brackel-Wambel. The new network will be an FTTH (Fiber To The Home) network, meaning the glass fiber cable will be laid directly into homes. This modern approach ensures end-users receive ultra-fast, reliable internet connections.
Continued Use of Existing Connections
It's important to note that existing telecommunications connections can continue to be used during and after the fiber optic network installation. This means that residents and businesses can enjoy the benefits of the new fiber network without any disruption to their current services.
FTTH Connection is Free
Another notable aspect of this expansion is that the FTTH connection will be free for both property owners and residents. This move is expected to make high-speed internet more accessible and affordable for the community.
Construction Timeline
The planning phase for this project began in early 2024, with the physical laying of fiber optic infrastructure commencing in the Spring. The project is expected to be completed by late 2024 or early 2025, depending on weather and site conditions. As sections of the fiber rollout are completed, residents and businesses can start subscribing and connecting to the new fiber network.

Economic and Property Value Benefits
The expansion of the fiber optic network is expected to have various benefits, including increased property values due to the modern glass fiber connection, economic growth by supporting local businesses and startups, and a future-proof infrastructure that can adapt to increasing data demands. Furthermore, the open access approach allows property owners and residents to choose their own internet providers from regionally available options, such as Vodafone and Bahnhof Network.
With this expansion, Dortmund's Brackel district is poised to join the ranks of ultra-connected cities, offering its residents and businesses a more reliable, high-speed internet experience.
Data-and-cloud-computing services can thrive in Dortmund's Brackel district as the expansion of OXG Fiber GmbH's fiber optic network brings ultra-fast, reliable connections, facilitating seamless data transfer and cloud-based operations. This technology-driven initiatives is part of the broader effort to make Dortmund an ultraconnected city, ensuring its competitiveness in the digital age.
