CommScope and Altnets Join Forces to Boost UK FTTP Broadband Builds

Network infrastructure provider CommScope has today announced that they’ve started a new collaboration with Brighton-based Altnets (the company, not the sector), the telecoms procurement specialist. The aim of this is to “accelerate the UK’s full-fibre rollout, supporting Project Gigabit and the nation’s digital infrastructure“.

According to the announcement, Altnets and CommScope will accelerate UK fibre rollouts, improve network resilience, and support the next phase of digital connectivity. Additionally, supplying CommScope’s products paves the way for Altnets’ to support the rollout of FTTX networks and central offices, which they say “will be of key importance for the future of the nation’s economic prosperity“.

CommScope will also be able to harness Altnets’ established market position and logistical expertise to help expand their connectivity solutions to more UK clients.

Paul Britnell, Co-Founder of Altnets, said:

“We’re incredibly excited to support CommScope’s initiative to further support the UK telecoms sector, helping ISPs build faster and more resilient networks for the digital future. We are delivering high-density fibre connectivity solutions that are instrumental in FttX networks. Altnets is proud to play a key role in advancing the UK’s digital infrastructure.”
