This acquisition provides our partners with the opportunity to maximize their returns and margins not only through Opal’s traditional services but also through new compelling next generation propositions.”

Stenson concluded, “We have always worked very closely with the channel to provide not only the best technologies, through elements such as our next generation network, but also the best partnerships and deals.”
