Superfast broadband supplier, Call Flow, continues to expand its large Kent network – Now live in Stansted and Fairseat.

Residents and businesses residing in Fairseat and Stansted can now access broadband up to 100 Mbit/s thanks to the completion of Call Flow Solutions new fibre to the cabinet network.

Call Flow Solutions has extended superfast broadband to a further 700 premises and covers parts of Fairseat and Stansted with its fibre to the cabinet solution with three new street cabinets under the successful delivery of its contract with Superfast Kent, part of the UK Government’s (BDUK) national scheme.

The early connection speeds for new customers from its upgraded cabinets have been exceedingly good, with all exceeding the predicted speeds and some customers achieving never seen before download speeds of 100 Mbit/s.

Andy Conibere, Managing Director of Call Flow said:

“Call Flow are thrilled to have completed our latest fibre superfast broadband network in Kent, commissioned by Kent County Council. Working in and around rural Stansted and parts of Fairseat has presented a wide range of challenges, particularly due to the landscape which has involved careful co-ordination between a number of parties. This work was also unique due to Openreach installing a brand new cabinet for Call Flow to fibre to, where no previous cabinet existed. This means customers in Stansted, who would have been a long way from their fibre cabinet, now have one right on their doorstep and will be able to get far faster speeds as a result. All three cabinets are now ‘live’, and we are looking forward to connecting customers so they can experience home and business life in the broadband superfast lane. Our growing network reflects the significant demand for superfast broadband, and we now plan on raising the profile and awareness of the newly available service at every opportunity.”

Call Flow Solutions have built some of their network in Kent, including Fairseat and Stansted by expanding the capability of the BT Openreach infrastructure.

Call Flow are one of the largest providers in the UK that uses this technology (sub-loop unbundling).
