Vorboss has launched an affordable and quick to deploy fibre solution to power London’s smart public services.

London, 5 November 2025
Vorboss, London’s leading business fibre network, today announces the launch of a cutting-edge connectivity product built to enable essential public services across the capital.
The new solution offers high-speed, reliable connectivity that’s both affordable and quick to deploy, helping London stay connected and future-proof.
Built on the 100Gbps-capable Vorboss network, the new solution delivers ultra-reliable, high-capacity connectivity that underpins the growing demands of smart city technology and public infrastructure. With a range of options to connect these end-points, Vorboss is collaborating with Vitrifi, which has deployed key components of its networking platform, on PON-based solutions as part of the launch. Working with Vitrifi allows rapid and efficient provisioning and seamless scalability.
The product enables councils, transport authorities, and service integrators to easily connect and manage thousands of devices, from real-time traffic cameras, CCTV, small cells, and environmental sensors to IoT-connected street furniture, all with enterprise-grade resilience and low latency.
“We have been listening to local government organisations over the last year as they explain their difficulty in finding cost-effective, reliable solutions to connecting machines across their boroughs. Through a lot of consultation and innovation we have been able to create a fibre-based solution that is reliable and can be installed quickly.”
Jason O'Malley, CCO, Vorboss, notes:
“With this launch, we’re extending the power of the Vorboss network to enable local authorities and service providers to make cities safer, and more efficient.”
Vorboss’s fibre network, which spans over 700km, is engineered for scalability and security. Vorboss engineers are all based in Central London and are managed by a Liverpool Street based planning and NOC team. This provides an unparalleled level of proactive and reactive support to London's councils.
Rhod Morgan, Vorboss COO, adds:
"The density and quality of our network in central London puts us in a unique position to provide these innovative solutions. Every month 100s of new businesses are being connected to the Vorboss network and this is natural progression of the business as we further accelerate this growth."

A fast-growing footprint and a move to a new London HQ, InPost is going through exciting changes.
If you’ve ever picked up a parcel from a locker at your local supermarket or petrol station, chances are you’ve used InPost. Founded in Poland and now operating across nine countries, they’re a leader in logistics solutions for the e-commerce industry in Europe.
Preparing for the move
The team knew that moving offices and switching internet providers can bring unexpected hurdles, so finding a partner who could provide dependable service and simplify the installation process was essential.
Q4 is crunch time, with businesses pushing hard to hit year-end targets. But nothing slows momentum like lagging connectivity. For teams, that often run across hybrid setups using cloud apps, this often means slow file transfers, dropped video calls, and frustrated employees trying to get work done. Every minute of downtime is a minute of lost productivity.
The hidden cost of downtime
Our Reliability and Compensation Report shows that 51% of UK fixed business connectivity customers report experiencing an outage annually, and nearly 1 in 5 have more than three outages.
These disruptions cost the average business around £11,000 in lost output.
Even worse, over 60% of those affected didn’t receive any compensation, either because claiming it wasn’t worth the effort or they didn’t expect to get anything back. So, while cheaper connections might look appealing on paper, they carry hidden operational costs that far outweigh any upfront savings.
How bandwidth directly impacts productivity
As more teams use AI-driven tools to speed-up tasks, poor connectivity becomes counteractive. These tools rely on fast, stable bandwidth to process and return results in real time. When responses lag, workflows slow, and the efficiency gains AI is designed to provide are reduced.
Most businesses only realise their network limits when they need it most, Q4 is the perfect example! Yet many teams have simply learned to put up with it. After years of slow uploads and dropped calls, it’s easy to accept that’s just how things are. But it doesn’t have to be that way. There is a choice, and switching to a more reliable connection is simpler than most realise (to us, anyway).
Fix problems now before they get worse
Addressing performance issues now ensures your team finishes the year strong and starts the next one even stronger. With reliable bandwidth, files transfer instantly, video calls stay clear, and systems remain responsive, so your team can focus on what really counts, getting work done.
Even if everything seems fine today, your team’s bandwidth demands are growing rapidly. Nielsen’s Law shows that high-end users’ network speeds increase by roughly 50% each year, so now’s the time to check whether your current contract can support the upgrades your team will need to avoid future slowdowns.
