For what it's worth. Largely an information free zone.

Thought it was a 1000/250 service that they were trialing?

According to that site it's only intended to be 150Mb/s.

Separately, eircom Group has commenced the construction of a technical trial of FTTH to assess the most cost effective solution for the rollout of high speed broadband in rural Ireland and address the challenges of ribbon development. This trial is taking place in Belcarra, Mayo and will launch in early 2015. eircom has already trialled and deployed FTTH technology in both an urban and suburban environments in Wexford Town and Sandyford, Co Dublin.

'Separately' looks like the weasel word, but if you look at the video its showing 833Mb/s. on the speedtest.
