TUANZ Winner
The TUANZ judges praised us saying “within just 18 months, Northpower has built one of the most advanced open access fibre to the premise (FTTP), next generation networks using passive optical network layer 2 technologies.”
In his acceptance speech Mark Gatland, Northpower’s Chief Executive thanked and acknowledged TelstraClear for partnering with Northpower to build a “successful commercial model” and staff “for their commitment and tireless efforts for making this happen”.
“We have rapidly implemented over 100 kilometres of overhead and underground fibre using existing power lines and ducts. Our fully operational Fibre Optic network delivers both voice and data services to business and enterprise in Whangarei,” he said. The Network is capable of delivering up to 1000Mbps fully symmetrical upload and download speeds.
The network utilises Electricity infrastructure and the partnership with a major teleco puts Northpower at the forefront of high-speed broadband in New Zealand. The separation of infrastructure assets from retailer products allows Northpower to focus on the construction of cost-effective Fibre Optic networks to international standards.
“Northpower has seen first hand the benefits fibre investment can bring to regional economies and wholeheartedly supports the Government’s objective to accelerate ultra fast broadband to New Zealand,” said Mr Gatland.
