London ISP Vorboss Launch New Connectivity Product for Smart Public Services

London-focused ISP Vorboss, which has built and operates a 100Gbps speed fibre optic network for businesses in the UK’s capital city, has today announced the launch of a connectivity product that’s “built to enable essential public services across the capital“.

Just to recap. The operator has so far completed the deployment of a 700km long dedicated point-to-point fibre optic network across Central London (covering most of zones 1 and 2), which we’re told is enough to connect all commercial buildings in the area to their direct internet access and Ethernet network. But they’re now looking to offer new solutions to the public sector too.

The provider claims to be fielding a range of options to connect end-points in the public sector. Vorboss is also collaborating with Vitrifi on all this, which has deployed key components of its networking platform, on PON-based solutions as part of the launch.

The product enables councils, transport authorities, and service integrators to connect and manage thousands of devices, from real-time traffic cameras, CCTV, small cells, and environmental sensors to IoT-connected street furniture, all with “enterprise-grade resilience and low latency“.

Jason O’Malley, CCO of Vorboss, said:

“We have been listening to local government organisations over the last year as they explain their difficulty in finding cost-effective, reliable solutions to connecting machines across their boroughs. Through a lot of consultation and innovation we have been able to create a fibre-based solution that is reliable and can be installed quickly.

With this launch, we’re extending the power of the Vorboss network to enable local authorities and service providers to make cities safer, and more efficient.”
