Sky Italia's ultra broadband service, Sky WiFi, will now be available to Sky subscribers in 26 Italian cities and large municipalities including Milan, Turin, Genoa, Florence, Bologna, Venice, Bari, Naples, Catania, Palermo, Cagliari.

Thanks to a wholesale agreement signed with Open Fiber, Sky's Ultra Network connects with Open Fiber's FTTH infrastructure, allowing Sky WiFi to reach 26 of the main Italian towns at launch and more than 120 by the summer, thus covering most of the Italian capitals and 5 large districts in Rome.

Sky WiFi is an innovative triple play solution – tv, internet and voice – that combines high quality content, Sky Q’s best viewing experience and a high-performing fibre connection. Sky WiFi optimises streaming quality and content upload at any time of the day, regardless of peak user periods and with numerous devices connected simultaneously. The pioneering network was developed and delivered thanks to Comcast and Sky UK’s technological expertise.

Thanks to the Sky WiFi Hub, the smart hub based on Comcast’s technology, the signal reaches every room of the house evenly and consistently. In addition, the Sky WiFi App will allow customers to manage many features in an easy and intuitive way.

Maximo Ibarra, CEO, Sky Italia
We have made an important investment in creating Sky WiFi, because we believe that technology is key to innovation and connecting people to all the content they love.
