NYnet represents one of Europe’s largest public sector led, open access, broadband infrastructure initiatives to overcome the issue of rural/coastal disadvantage in terms of broadband and connectivity. This carrier class core and access network offers an exciting proposition for service providers wishing to make an early impact on the expanding markets opened up by next generation broadband services.

NYnet has created a backhaul infrastructure to 12 points of presence in North Yorkshire using aggregated public sector demand. NYnet will price this DWDM backhaul capacity to minimise impact of distance. This will stimulate the provision of advanced ‘next generation’ services to the public and private sector.

The end-to-end architecture incorporates quality of service, resilient core and cost effective wholesale access. NYnet will also offer tiered service level agreements to service providers, with guarantees on bandwidth, quality of service and latency, plus other key service parameters. For more information please refer to our technology data sheet.

Yorkshire Forward is a stakeholder of NYnet and there is potential for grant incentives to Service Providers wishing to establish a presence in North Yorkshire. For Service Providers wishing to sell services to business, Yorkshire Forward is keen to invest in specific support activity aimed at increasing uptake.

Due to the high-speed network servicing 12 points of presence (PoPs) in major telephone exchanges around North Yorkshire, which will increase to 40 in the next 2 years, NYnet is able to work in partnership with owners and landlords of business parks and managed workspaces. 

Therefore we are working with local service and IT providers to help deliver business to business services to the underserved SMEs in North Yorkshire.
