MTN has released its latest fibre-to-the-home broadband prices, offering speeds of between 20Mbps and 100Mbps with tariffs ranging between R794 per month and R1,389 per month.<\/p>\n

MTN launched its first commercial fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) services in Monaghan Farm on 1 June 2014.<\/p>\n

MTN said earlier this year that it is “rolling out aggressive deployment to high-density urban areas, such as high-end gated communities, boomed-off suburbs and high-rise buildings”.<\/p>\n

The company is now promoting its new fibre based broadband offerings to gain support from communities to roll out FTTH in their suburbs.<\/p>\n

As part of this marketing drive, MTN has unveiled its new FTTH prices. These prices range based on speed and data package size.<\/p>\n

MTN is offering speeds between 20Mbps and 100Mbps, and data packages ranging from 10GB to 500GB per month.<\/p>\n

MTN also offers seamless upgrade and downgrade of speeds, and increasing or decreasing of a user’s data bundle size.<\/p>\n

The following table provides an overview of the new MTN fibre broadband prices.<\/p>\n
