Hexatronic UK Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Hexatronic Group AB, has signed a framework supply agreement with CityFibre, the UK’s largest independent Full Fibre platform, to supply passive fibre optic solutions including fibre optic cables, microducts, connectivity cabinets and aerial nodes. The supply agreement follows a previous contract announced in February 2019 to supply similar solutions for CityFibre’s initial build of one million homes.

The new agreement has an estimated value of around 100 MGBP over the next three years. In addition, the contract includes an option for CityFibre to extend the contract another two years. The equipment will be used by CityFibre as the company rolls out its Full Fibre networks throughout the UK to reach up to 8 million homes, 800k businesses, 400k public sector sites, and 250k 5G access points by end of 2025.
