Telekom to Initiate Extensive Fiber Expansion in North West and Quellberg, Particularly in Dülmen

In an exciting development, Deutsche Telekom AG is set to expand its fiber optic network to the districts of Nordwest and Quellberg in Dülmen, covering approximately 3,000 households. This expansion, scheduled to begin in mid-October 2025, promises to offer a faster and more reliable connection for digital learning, working, streaming, and gaming.

The new fiber optic network will enable significantly higher speeds of up to 1,000 megabits per second, a significant improvement over the existing copper network. Fiber optic cables enable significantly higher transmission rates, allowing for lightning-fast upload and download of vast amounts of data. Moreover, fiber optics is good for the climate as it consumes less energy than the existing copper network.

To check if a fiber optic connection is possible at your address, visit www.telekom.de/glasfaser. Starting from October 1st, 2025, sales representatives will provide doorstep advice on behalf of the Telekom, wearing clothing with a Telekom logo and carrying an ID card and authorization letter.

Over 46 kilometers of trench work and 31 new network distributors will be installed during the expansion. The total construction time for both areas is estimated to be around twelve months. Work will be carried out in individual sections to minimize inconvenience for residents.

For companies in Dülmen, more information can be found by calling the dedicated hotline or visiting the Telekom website. The city of Dülmen and Telekom are working closely together, prioritizing transparency and professional site management.

In an effort to educate the public about fiber optics, the Telekom and the city of Dülmen are planning a joint information event for all citizens. An information event will be held on Wednesday, 26th November 2025 at 6:30 PM at the Integratives Zentrum einsA, Bült 1a, 48249 Dülmen. Citizens can also visit the fiber optic info-mobile at various locations, including Tante Frieda's Grillschwestern - Ostlandwehr 12, St. Joseph's Parish Hall, Josef-Heiming-Straße 3, and more.

Fiber optics offers several advantages over other transmission paths. It is less prone to errors and more robust against external influences such as water, which is particularly important for elderly people with a home emergency call system. Furthermore, a fiber optic connection increases the value of a property when selling or renting a house, apartment, or business.

The city of Jena will also be equipped by Deutsche Telekom AG with an expansion of the fiber optic network in the near future. For the latest updates and more information, visit the Telekom website or call the hotline numbers. Citizens in the two new expansion areas can book a fiber optic tariff starting 1st October.

Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting development!
