Fusion Fibre Group is joining PlatformX Communications (PXC) in partnership, enabling them to offer services across PXC’s network which spans more than 98 percent of UK premises.
The Fibre Café has launched its wholesale fibre aggregation gateway to simplify the task of connecting multiple altnets and Service Providers rapidly and cost-effectively.
The new gateway targets the “spaghetti" approach to integration and provides a single interface underpinned by a modern API, common processes and a unified order journey.
Wail Sabbagh, Director at the Fibre Café, said “The current wholesale fibre landscape creates a matrix of point-to-point integrations complicated by disparate technologies, varying levels of OSS/BSS maturity, inconsistent order journeys, bespoke data models and different interfaces.
“This limits consumer choice, entrenches the dominant operators and acts as a barrier to market for altnets and connectivity providers.”
The Fibre Café provides a scalable 'develop once, connect to many' solution that addresses these challenges to create an equal and integrated wholesale fibre platform.
The features are listed as:
- A single unified interface and modern API
- A single-entry point into multiple AltNets and service providers
- A National availability checker
- Standardised view of services, appointing and service availability
- Common processes and a unified order journey
- A single UK wide data model and a consolidated taxonomy
- A single security model with consolidated audit trails
- Award winning onboarding and support service wrap
Sabbagh added: The Fibre gateway is not just a technology innovation, it is born of extensive collaboration and consultation with organisations that have the vision of building a connected Digital Britain.
“With a growing list of CSPs and altnets onboard, The Fibre Cafe is creating a more equal marketplace, enhancing customer choice and creating a vibrant and dynamic wholesale market that was not previously possible.”
The Fibre Café is backed by Strategic Imperatives, the UK's market leader in providing SaaS billing provisioning and connectivity management solutions.
