Broadband Coverage in Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe
Wales's Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe constituency has 48,736 premises on record. Full-fibre sits at 54.3%, below the UK national average, and folding in gigabit-capable cable upgrades takes coverage to 54.3%. 88.8% of premises reach superfast (30 Mbit/s or more) and 54.3% reach ultrafast (300 Mbit/s or more).
On connectivity for all households, 1.7% of premises fall below the USO standard of 10 Mbit/s, a relatively small but nonetheless significant proportion representing households without reliable broadband. Ofcom's ultrafast threshold may be revised upward in future reporting cycles as gigabit networks become the standard.
Where these figures come from
Figures are drawn from Ofcom's Connected Nations 2025 report (July 2025, r01), which aggregates postcode-sector data to constituency level. They represent coverage availability from at least one network operator, not the proportion of households that have subscribed to a given speed tier, nor the typical or guaranteed speeds that customers actually receive. Nearby constituencies in Wales with comparable full-fibre coverage are listed below.
