murphx, which supplies several UK ISPs/vISPs, has announced the multi million pound acquisition of 102 broadband wholesale customers and resellers from Cable & Wireless (C&W) Europe, Asia and US.
The deal will also provide the murphx Channel with access to
LLU (unbundled) products provided via the C&W network:
Carl Churchill, Commercial Director of murphx comments:
The wholesale customers and resellers purchased from Cable&Wireless are a perfect fit within the murphx business. This acquisition is a clear demonstration of murphxs commitment to the channel and enhancing our product portfolio with quality assured, low contention LLU connectivity, services which are fundamental to the successful deployment of convergent solutions. Im looking forward to developing the relationships with these customers and of course our partners Cable&Wireless.
Meanwhile C&W is understood to be refocusing its resources on larger wholesale customers. It is not currently clear precisely how much the deal itself is worth.
