Neos Networks is extending a longstanding collaboration with Zen Internet, involving a major upgrade to 400Gbps connectivity between Manchester and London to ensure Zen’s core network is ready for the future as digital infrastructure demand surges.
Delivered over Neos Networks’ nationwide fibre network, the upgrade of this advanced corridor is designed to support the UK’s growing bandwidth requirements as data centre investment, AI adoption, and full fibre rollout increase across the nation.
Beyond the Manchester to London link, Zen also continues to benefit from Neos’s upgraded core and exchange-backhaul services, which are critical for delivering ultrafast, resilient connectivity.
Together, these investments support Zen’s mission to make high-quality fibre more widely available to UK businesses and consumers.
David Bruce, CRO at Neos Networks said: “Our long-standing partnership with Zen Internet highlights the vital role of advanced fibre infrastructure when it comes to meeting the UK’s AI ambitions.
“Zen’s mission (to become one of the leading altnet aggregators) is well aligned with the breadth, quality, and reliability of our backbone networks, and by working together, we’re ensuring an ecosystem that will ultimately benefit the UK as a whole.”
Earlier this year, Zen launched its Fibre Hub to further enhance access to nationwide connectivity by aggregating services from the UK’s leading alternative networks, and this ongoing partnership with Neos is an important step towards this goal, allowing Zen to offer greater choice and transformative speeds as both customer needs and technology evolve.
