Thursday, Oct 2nd, 2025 (11:56 am) - Score 520Telecom giant Vodafone and strategic supplier Nokia have today revealed that they conducted their first real-world trial of “lag-busting” L4S (Low Latency, Low Loss, and Scalable Throughput) technology on a “live home broadband fibre [FTTP] connection“. The trial was able to significant reduce the delay (latency) time during gaming and videoconferencing by 94%. AdvertisementHowever, Vodafone and other operators have long been working to introduce L4S technology, which could enable their networks to simultaneously maintain high throughput and low latency. The good news today is that they’ve progressed from last year’s lab trials and have now trialled L4S on a live commercial FTTP fibre broadband network (end-to-end) for the first time. Alberto Ripepi, Chief Network Officer of Vodafone, said: “We are raising the bar on quality for fibre broadband by significantly lowering latency.
