We are very excited about our collaboration with The Loop, which has a fantastic track record in Manchester. After a careful evaluation of various providers, they came out as the obvious choice as a partner.<\/p>\n<p>We believe the internet should be offered as a utility, and this project is another step towards eliminating the digital divide once and for all in this region. We are very focused on digital inclusion and helping the independent creative community thrive.<\/p>\n<p>This is not a run of the mill tech collaboration. It is in line with both the Government\u2019s and the Mayor\u2019s strategy and we\u2019re proud to be supporting them on achieving their vision for the city region. What we\u2019re doing here is just the start.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Sean Anstee, Greater Manchester&#8217;s Lead for Employment, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This fits extremely well with our digital strategy. It will support our ambitions to be a leading tech city, creating jobs, attracting and retaining talent and enabling small businesses, particularly those in the creative sector to have affordable and accessible top grade internet.<\/p>\n<p>This will allow them to stay ahead of the competition, flourish and grow.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The network&#8217;s fibre optic cables are buried under the region\u2019s roads and remained largely dormant for over a decade until The Loop (based in Trafford Park) was launched in October 2012. The original cabling was installed by Atlantic Telecom, largely to support the Manchester Commonwealth Games in 2002, but Atlantic subsequently went into administration.<\/p>\n<p>The network circles the city centre and stretches out to Eccles in the West, towards Oldham in the North, Stretford in the South and Gorton in the East. At present The Loop already offers connectivity to all of Manchester\u2019s leading datacentres and also links Manchester\u2019s main commercial districts including the city centre, Manchester Science Park and MediaCityUK. It also connects to some key buildings including Manchester Central Library, The Sharp Project, and Space Studios.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Telcom Networks has chosen the 160km long &#8216;The Loop&#8216; fibre optic network from Gamma to deliver multi-Gigabit broadband and Ethernet data speeds to potentially hundreds of businesses across Manchester.
