This new collaboration builds on a long established relationship between the two companies and offers an exciting proposition to Virtual1 and its partners.

Partners can take advantage of high bandwidth connectivity solutions across Ireland including wavelengths and Ethernet up to 10G. The Viatel infrastructure provides a deep network in Ireland with EFM, LLU, fibre and radio access types, enabling the company to connect across Ireland cost effectively, even into remote areas.

The Viatel network spans over 8,500km which connects 35 European cities, over 120 data centres, and Europe’s leading Internet Exchanges. The Viatel network is uniquely positioned in the market with the majority of the network infrastructure being wholly owned, this ensures Viatel a great deal of control over lead-times and costs compared to other players in the market.
