Connexin onboards two new Tier 1 contractors

Hull-based IoT and digital Infrastructure specialist, Connexin, has onboarded two new Tier 1 contractors — SCD Group and MAP Group.

The move is part of its cunning plan to accelerate its rapidly increasing Full Fibre network expansion,  and reach its target of half a million broadband-connected homes.

SCD Group and MAP Group obtained their Tier 1 contractor status from decades of experience delivering large-scale infrastructure projects. MAP Group is an independent provider of professional technology services and SCD Group is a multi-discipline infrastructure contractor.

They will work closely with Connexin to fully complete the Fibre to the Premise (FTTP) expansion across all of Hull and key areas of the East Riding of Yorkshire by December 2023, aiming to cover virtually every single home and business.

The news follows on from the launch of the Connexin SmartHome App which allows Wi-Fi network and security to be managed directly on their mobile phone.

Connexin has experienced a substantial increase in its market share in Hull, establishing itself as one of the leading alt-net providers in the region and recently being recognised as one of the Top 100 Fastest Growing Tech Companies in the Northern Tech Awards.

Furqan Alamgir, CEO and Co-Founder of Connexin said: “Our Full Fibre build has progressed spectacularly since we announced our plans to roll out in Hull, we’ve seen thousands of customers get connected and finally given our community broadband choice.”
