The ITS Technology Group, which operates 36 wholesale full fibre broadband and Ethernet networks (“Faster Britain“) across urban parts of the UK for businesses and ISPs, has partnered up with Evolve to help it employ the latest technology as they upgrade their old GPON network to be 10Gbps (symmetrical) capable.
According to the blurb, “Evolve’s ability to offer ground-breaking technology is bolstered by ITS’ adoption of state-of-the-art technology“. Its fibre network, equipped with dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) capability, allows flexible bandwidth expansion. By consolidating data signals from various sources over a single fibre, Evolve can cater to multiple end-users, delivering up to 10Gbps bandwidth while maintaining data stream separation.
The announcement doesn’t actually include a lot of information on the specifics of this partnership, except to highlight the general benefits of extra bandwidth in a network and the use of technologies that are somewhat par for the course when it comes to XGS-PON based fibre.

A spokesperson from ITS Technology added:
“At ITS, we’re proud to connect a nation of trailblazers, innovators and entrepreneurs, ensuring they have access to the fastest, most robust and future-proof full fibre networks out there. Having Evolve as our connectivity partner is a real coup for us. The business is at the forefront of delivering such infrastructure, boasting a remarkable 10Gbps capability to enable businesses to keep pace with the dynamic competition and the ever-increasing demand for bandwidth-intensive technologies.”
The announcement is said to mark the start of an “exciting pipeline of plans for the partnership“, with further integration of solutions expected in the new year.
Looks like Evolve are selling managed network services over the ITS network, nothing more than that. They seem to sell services over a bunch of network providers.
Wow, that’s really clear and unvague!:-)
Always a lot of smoke and mirrors around ITS reality.
Just seems like a fairly standard reseller partnership
