Alan O’Prey, Managing Director at Netomnia, commented: “We are delighted to rollout our ultrafast broadband infrastructure to thousands of residents and businesses in Gravesend, at a time when access to reliable and fast internet access is more important than ever.
"The download speeds made possible by our infrastructure are second to none, and with Kent proudly being host to several major businesses, we hope our investment in the area will provide new opportunities to enhance its renowned business sectors, whilst providing residents with access to ultrafast broadband speeds.”
Netomnia makes wholesale connectivity available to Internet Service Providers (ISPs), building the infrastructure for their broadband services. Its network supports symmetrical (equal upload and download speeds) multi-gigabit services up to 10 Gbps (10,000 Mbps) using XGS-PON technology; this means ISPs using Netomnia’s network will be able to offer their customers reliable ultrafast speeds for decades to come.
