A deal between BT and O2 has been agreed that will see O2’s networks made more efficient in a 5 year deal.
What the partnership will entail is consolidating O2’s networks such as it’s mobile networks and fixed line networks on to BT’s 21CN. The deal and work will be done between O2 and BT Wholesale and is aimed at hopefully improving O2 customers with their next generation services.
With the huge increase in mobile data usage from mobile phones and mobile broadband O2 will be able to better cope with these demands with this new partnership.
The head of networks at Telefonica O2 said:
“As we move to an all internet-protocol world and as data traffic volumes increase, the consolidation of our fixed and mobile core networks is a common sense approach that will help future-proof our business and provide the best possible service for our customers.”
O2 are set to launch their own home phone service in March which will mean that O2 will be able to create even more broadband, mobile and house phone bundles.
