Virgin and Arqiva complete ‘data superhighway’ build out

Virgin Media Business has completed the build out of a superfast fibre network for communications and media services company, Arqiva.

The dedicated Arqnet2 ‘data superhighway’ network connects up to 40 sites across the UK, transmitting data bundles of up to 16 terabytes.

Arqiva said the new capacity will help it meet customer demand from broadcasters like the BBC, ITV and BskyB. It could also help Arqiva launch new services for its customers, like +1 and HD channels, without having to worry about its network buckling under pressure.
