Quickline has teamed up with charity Run With It in a three-year partnership that will help fund its expansion south of the Humber, alongside enrichment days to boost key work skills for young people.
Quickline has deployed Adtran’s Mosaic CP solution and software-defined access hardware to boost rural connectivity across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire.
Adtran’s software enables Quickline to create a hybrid network that blends with its existing fixed wireless access hardware.
Darryl Petch, CTO of Quickline, said: “Together with Adtran, we’re levelling up rural areas across the north of England and unleashing a great deal of untapped talent and potential in the process.”
Stuart Broome, GM of EMEA sales at Adtran, added: “Lighting up fiber optic networks in rural areas always has a positive and lasting impact on quality of life.
“Our scalable and future-ready solution is ideal for the challenge of extending high-speed connectivity to these hard-to-reach locations.”
