ITS has joined AssetHUB forming a strategic partnership to bolster the delivery of high-capacity networks across major UK cities, providing altnets and carriers with a centralised platform to purchase dark fibre assets through a secure marketplace.
The platform also enables more efficient deployments to decrease time to market.
The partnership has been made possible thanks to ITS’ real-world experience operating in Sweden, and allows it to benefit from the marketplace as a buyer, sourcing infrastructure assets to support build and expansion plans.
Kevin McNulty, Strategy Director at ITS (pictured) said: “Our strategic partnership with AssetHUB is an important step in our ambition to scale through collaboration.
“By making our infrastructure discoverable to other parties at the point of planning, we’re supporting faster rollouts, reduced disruption, and greater visibility of critical fibre routes in some of the UK’s most in-demand urban areas.”
Rob Leenderts, CEO of AssetHUB added: “Through collaboration and sharing of assets in big cities, altnets and other fibre builders can avoid unnecessary dig costs and overbuild, as well as speed up deployments to businesses and other amenities that require urgent connectivity upgrades.”
