LONDON, Sept 17 (Reuters) - UK company Virgin Media said onTuesday it is to offer a superfast 4G wireless broadbandservice to businesses as well as its fixed line products.
The cable company, which was acquired by Liberty Globalearlier this year, is using EE's 4G mobile network to provide the service. Its competitors in thecorporate fixed line sector include BT and Vodafone's fixed-line unit.
"We're simplifying things for our customers by being thesingle supplier for all their telecoms needs," Virgin mediabusiness executive Duncan Higgins said.
Businesses are increasingly looking to buy fixed, mobile andother telecom services from a single provider to save costs andsimplify billing.
Vodafone, which launched it own 4G service in London lastmonth, bought fixed-line business-focused operator Cable &Wireless Worldwide last year.
