UK Altnets Launch Infrastructure Sharing Venture to Tap New Markets

A coalition of 20 UK alternative broadband providers has launched an infrastructure sharing venture aimed at commercializing spare fiber capacity. The initiative seeks to reduce network duplication while creating new revenue streams from mobile operators and data centers. Industry reports indicate the venture could unlock access to approximately 500,000 kilometers of previously underutilized fiber infrastructure.

In a significant move for the UK telecommunications landscape, alternative broadband providers are banding together to create what industry observers are calling a potential game-changer for infrastructure sharing. According to reports from the Independent Networks Co-operative Association (INCA), twenty broadband altnets have established a cooperative venture that could dramatically reshape how fiber assets are utilized across the country.
