Fibre optic ISP Hyperoptic has today agreed a new supply deal with residential property developer A2Dominion, which means that homes across their housing portfolio in London and the South East of England will soon gain access to the provider’s ultrafast Fibre-to-the-Building (FTTB/P) network.
The majority of residential properties built by A2Dominion (sometimes also known as FABRICA) represent large buildings (multi-dwelling units) with lots of flats and, as usual, Hyperoptic’s service will only be installed in those that consist of over 50 units (apartments).
Initially the FTTP/B service will be installed across 43 sites within A2Dominion’s property portfolio (both existing and new sites) and work has already begun. No doubt this will help to support the ISP’s existing goal of extending their network to over 500,000 UK “homes” by the end of 2018 2019.
Doreen Wright, Group Development Director at A2Dominion, said:
“In the past we’ve had very little control over what broadband and telephone services our residents could opt for. It was a broadband postcode lottery depending on the available existing broadband infrastructure at each site.
Our larger sites will now have the best available telecoms connectivity thanks to our collaboration with Hyperoptic, giving our residents the best possible solution for all their broadband and telephone needs.”
David Walker, Hyperoptic’s Head of Property, said:
“Digital infrastructure is now on par with physical. Having fast and reliable broadband just isn’t something they can compromise on – it’s an essential utility that affects their quality of life.
The property sector understands this; which is why we work alongside the biggest and best property companies in the UK and why we have become standard addition to the scheme designs of many of the larger developers. We are thrilled to add A2Dominion to this coveted list and look forward to the resident feedback as we roll our service across its portfolio.”
Hyperoptic typically offers a choice of three premium packages (20Mbps, 100Mbps and 1Gbps) and their network is already present around 20 UK cities and towns including in London, Birmingham, Glasgow, Cardiff, Bristol, Reading, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Sheffield, Birmingham, Newcastle, Nottingham, Brighton, Portsmouth, Watford, Leicester, Southampton, Slough, Edinburgh and Woking etc.
