Challenges
In such an important and generally over crowded area, connectivity is essential. Residents and visitors need access to data at all times independently of current network saturation. In order to make the best use of the City of London, being connected while you are on the streets is nowadays a primary need.
Solution
The columns are connected by a brand-new 15km high density dark fibre network, which is multi-operator capable and provides the bandwidth for Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) to deploy advanced technology, including centralised C-RAN architecture and 5G. The network consists of a fibre ring with 90 cabinets and associated assets. It also enables network operators to benefit from infrastructure sharing.
