Mobile broadband on the up as BT and O2 create a new managed network

In a bid to improve mobile broadband BT has announced a new managed solutions agreement with O2 whereby BT will provide and manage high speed connectivity for O2 users.

BT will design and deliver a communications infrastructure that is designed to enable them to manage an increase in network traffic as new headsets are bandwidth intensive.

BT believes their next generation network service will be better matched to their customers needs providing a more flexible package with costs matching actual traffic and revenue increases.

One typical service will be O2 business broadband which O2 launched on 1st May this year. The service is compatible with BT analogue lines and aims to allow a small office to access the internet and stay connected.

With download speeds of up to 20 Mbps, O2 claims that Business broadband will offer some of the best connections for businesses in the UK.
