Completion of Government funded Sør-Trøndelag fixed wireless broadband project

Satellite Solutions Worldwide Group plc (AIM: SAT), the global leader in delivery of alternative super-fast broadband services, announces that it has successfully completed the network build out and commissioning of a new Government funded super-fast fixed wireless network in the Sør-Trøndelag area in Norway ahead of schedule.

Since winning the contract, as announced by SSW on 4 April 2017, Breiband AS, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of SSW and is the one of the largest alternative broadband provider in Scandinavia, has successfully built and tested the network with the first customers being added in mid-October. The original contract award of c.£0.5m (NOK5.6m) is the first of several Government backed initiatives that Breiband will be bidding for over the coming months.

The new network will service approximately 350 residential dwellings, 15 businesses along with around 500 holiday homes and cabins. Efficiencies in the network build out have meant that some 300 extra premises have been covered over and above those specified in the original tender whilst remaining within budget. Customers covered by the new network have the option for several different broadband offerings with speeds of up to 75 Mbps and unlimited data allowances.

Jan-Tore Dannemark, CEO of Breiband, said:

"The Sør-Trøndelag project is a perfect showcase for what we're capable of as a company and also a demonstration of what's achievable with our fibre backed super-fast fixed wireless technology. This network has been designed and built quickly with no disruption to the area's roads or the end user's driveways for a fraction of the cost of what it would have cost to dig and lay fibre. However, the end user experience and service is as good or better than fibre to the home.

"Sør-Trøndelag is a very remote area and its fantastic that these homes and businesses have now got a high standard, future proofed broadband solution."
