Data and Telecoms
Hawke Ridge Business Park enjoys an unusually high level of connectivity with fibre connections to both BT Openreach and Virgin Media services immediately available giving a choice of provider, speed, contention and reliability. From the earliest design phase of the business park HPH have worked with BT Openreach and Virgin Media as the importance of connectivity to business development is recognised as paramount. The participation of telecoms providers to the requirements of the site’s infrastructure and for individual buildings will help ensure installation costs are minimised with increased speed of installation.
A newly installed network of underground ducting within the road infrastructure enables individual buildings and occupiers to be connected directly using fibre or copper to existing cabinets / junction nodes immediately adjacent to the business park entrance.
