Swoop’s first fibre-to-the-premises network

We’re proud to announce a major milestone for Swoop Infrastructure (Swoop’s wholesale network arm), the successful deployment of our first fibre-to-the-premises (FTTP) wholesale network in Western Australia. 

This cutting-edge network connects 1,000 homes in Geraldton’s Seacrest Estate with ultra-fast broadband speeds of up to 8 Gbps.

This is a key step in our strategy to deliver high-speed, future-ready broadband to regional communities. By rolling out our own fibre infrastructure, we’re giving developers and residents more choice and access to premium broadband solutions.

Bringing future-ready broadband to regional Australia

Led by Swoop Infrastructure, the Seacrest Estate deployment shows our ability to deliver high-performance broadband solutions. 

With streaming, gaming, remote work, smart home devices, and cloud services all increasing rapidly, the demand for reliable and fast internet is growing. Our network has been built to meet these demands, not just for today, but well into the future.

Alex West, CEO of Swoop, shared the company’s broader vision:

“This is an exciting time for Swoop as we start to focus on fibre infrastructure to ensure that we continue our journey in delivering high-speed broadband to underserved areas in Australia by using our state-of-the-art fibre broadband technology.”

This landmark project represents the next big step in our infrastructure capabilities.  giving developers and regional communities greater choice, performance, and access to future ready broadband.

A strategic shift to infrastructure

This deployment is part of a broader focus for Swoop Infrastructure as we expand our fibre offerings alongside our existing fixed wireless capabilities. For both single-dwelling and multi-dwelling units, Swoop can support the infrastructure needs of developers and communities alike.

“We’re proud to deliver a fibre network that not only offers state-of-the-art speed and performance but is also built to scale with the expected consumer data demands into the future,” said our Head of Infrastructure, Anthony Camilleri.

Partnering for stronger communities

We believe regional areas deserve the same digital opportunities as metro centres. That’s why we’re working closely with developers, local councils, and building owners to roll out scalable fibre solutions that truly support connected communities.

“Swoop has a deep legacy in serving regional Australia, and this next-generation infrastructure is just the beginning of what we can deliver in partnership with forward-thinking developers, councils, body corporates, and building owners,” added Camilleri.

What’s next for Swoop? 

With the completion of this network in Western Australia, we’re just getting started. We are committed to growing our presence in regional areas by delivering flexible, high-speed broadband solutions where they’re needed most.

With both fibre and fixed wireless services in our toolkit, Swoop can be a complete infrastructure partner. This project is just the beginning of what we can deliver in collaboration with forward thinking developers, councils, and communities, especially in regional and underserved areas.

A big thank you to our incredible team who continue to push boundaries and bring our vision to life. We’re excited for what’s ahead.
