HUNTSVILLE — Adtran is designing and building a multigig fiber network for Scotland’s Lothian Broadband’s end-to-end fiber service.

The new network will delivers voice, video and internet services to 70,000 customers in underserved regions of Scotland. Lothian Broadband is an Edinburgh-based internet service provider.

“When we made the decision to transition from fixed wireless access to fiber, the only choice was Adtran,” said Gavin Rogers, CEO at Lothian Broadband. “Pairing its FTTP technology with its partner’s core network infrastructure, Adtran is creating a complete end-to-end solution for us that can scale to meet our rapid build plans.

“Our new fiber network will … allow the communities we service to be connected to new digital applications and economic opportunities.”

Adtran’s platform and cloud software allows Lothian to simplify customer care and ensure all customer devices have continuous high-speed connectivity.

“Service providers across the UK are deploying our end-to-end fiber solution because it makes it easy to reach every community and deliver the benefits of multi-gigabit broadband,” said Stuart Broome, vice president of Sales EMEA at Adtran. “For Lothian Broadband, that means quickly expanding its fiber network and connecting new customers to multi-gigabit speeds.

“Our solution also guarantees best-in-class customer experience that will provide Lothian Broadband and its customers peace of mind that the network will support their needs well into the future.”
