CityFibre has partnered with Bamboo Technology Group Ltd to unleash full fibre connectivity to Cheltenham businesses

CityFibre, the UK’s largest alternative provider of wholesale full fibre infrastructure, is launching its new, gigabit speed full fibre network to businesses in Cheltenham. The future-proof infrastructure means that Cheltenham businesses will now be able to access gigabit-capable internet services from CityFibre, offered through its exclusive launch partner Bamboo Technology Group Ltd. Members of Cheltenham’s business community will attend a launch event at Queens Hotel Cheltenham on Thursday 6th June to celebrate the network being live and hear first-hand the advantages it brings. Now CityFibre’s full fibre network has arrived in Cheltenham, businesses are able to compete with more advanced fibre-driven economies in Europe. While in the UK only 7% of premises can access full fibre, in Spain penetration stands at around 63%. With the launch of Cheltenham’s 16.65 km long CityFibre network will provide businesses with fibre-optic internet offering speeds up to 100 times faster than a standard UK broadband connection. It also brings greater reliability. Paul North, Head of Sales for CityFibre’s wholesale business, commented: “We are thrilled to work alongside our launch partner Bamboo to bring our gigabit-speed full fibre network to Cheltenham. This means the town can now take advantage of some of the fastest download and upload speeds in the world, unlocking a host of productivity benefits for businesses.” Bamboo’s Manager Director, Lorrin White, added: “It’s wonderful to be involved with the core infrastructure that has been implemented to future proof Cheltenham and the business community that supports it.” About Bamboo: Bamboo Technology Group Ltd is an award winning and market leading provider of a full range of ICT solutions.
