Nexfibre has announced that it has reached 2 million premises passed and ready for service.
The company achieved this in the space of two years, through its build partnership with Virgin Media O2.
Rajiv Datta, chief executive officer of nexfibre, said, “Reaching two million premises is testament to the dedication of our team and the support of our partners and investors. It reflects our commitment to building a network that prioritises underserved communities and creates a real and lasting impact – most of all by driving economic growth and improving living standards across the UK.
“This is an outstanding achievement in just two years of operation – making nexfibre the UK’s second largest alternative network. However, our work is far from done. Our mission is to be part of a network platform that drives sustainable, nationwide competition, provides a genuine alternative to Openreach, and transforms access to broadband across the country.”
Nexfibre is a wholesale-only provider, which enables it to focus entirely on building and maintaining a high-quality, technologically advanced, full-fibre infrastructure platform for ISPs and businesses to meet their needs.
Virgin Media O2 provides broadband services reaching speeds of up to 2Gbps across the nexfibre network.
