Fiber ready scheme for Enterprise
Fibre-Ready Scheme (FRS) is a scheme which is applicable to non-residential buildings. The Scheme provides for a government subsidy of up to 80% of the cost of new in-building infrastructure such as
- Access panels
- Cable trays/trunkings
- Air blown ducts, racks and accessories
The subsidy under the FRS is capped at $200,000 per building for building owners and managers to facilitate access to fibre services for non-residential subscribers.
This funding will go towards helping buildings to put in place additional in-building facilities and infrastructure to bring fibre broadband to their business tenants.
Operators remain responsible for installation and maintenance of fibre cables.

WHY NOW?
Because the Grant by iDA is only valid for 3 years and it is mandatory under COPIF 2013 to provide infrastructure for fibre from MDF to riser / tenant units thereafter.
Why is it important to be Fibre-Ready?
To put in place additional in-building facilities and infrastructure to bring “fibre broadband” to your business tenants.
