Uecomm Announces Commencement of Services in South Australia
Uecomm announced today it had signed an infrastructure Wholesale Agreement, which will enable the Company to commence data services in the Adelaide market by the end of this month.
The Agreement will enable Uecomm to rapidly connect services to network customers, without the need for it to commit to substantial capital expenditures. The Company currently has a number of customers awaiting immediate connection.
Uecomm Chief Executive Officer Mr Peter McGrath said the Agreement marks a very positive initiative for both Uecomm and businesses in the Adelaide area. It is expected that the data and Internet services market in Adelaide will contribute approximately 7% to Australia's $4.4 billion market.
"This Agreement will enable Uecomm to utilise an existing infrastructure in both the CBD and metropolitan areas of Adelaide, which will have a significant impact on the speed and cost effectiveness with which we are able to enter into this market. The network in Adelaide will be fully integrated into Uecomm's national network capability, providing advanced nation-wide data and internet solutions for Australian based corporate and government organisations "
"It is also a very positive outcome for businesses in the CBD and metropolitan areas of Adelaide, as it means they will have rapid access to one of the most advanced and extensive data telecommunications networks in Australia," Mr McGrath said.
