Colt Technology Services (Colt), the digital infrastructure company, announced an expansion to its technology portfolio with Managed LEO+, a new managed service which integrates Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite connectivity with cellular 4G/5G. 

Managed LEO+, now available to Colt customers across 65 countries, brings a greater choice of networking technologies to businesses with operations - such as production facilities, manufacturing sites and retail locations - in rural and hard-to-reach areas.

Colt’s fibre connectivity

New service complements Colt’s fibre connectivity by providing businesses with alternative back-up options

The new service complements Colt’s fibre connectivity by providing businesses with alternative back-up options for their infrastructure and is ideal for organisations looking for rapid deployment. 

Managed LEO+ is launched following a successful trial with a global biopharmaceutical company that has operations in 30 countries, some of which are in rural locations previously underserved by network providers.

Futureproof digital infrastructure

The company needed a secure, sustainable, futureproof digital infrastructure to connect and integrate its operations; to run tools and applications; and to share data between sites in areas such as research and development and supply chain management.

The company required consistently high levels of performance and reliability, regardless of whether they were located in urban or rural areas.

Innovative connectivity solutions

Colt’s managed LEO 4G/5G network met those requirements and more, enabling efficient remote access, improving collaboration and ensuring robust levels of regulatory compliance.

Managed LEO+ demonstrates Colt’s commitment to delivering innovative connectivity solutions that address the unique needs of its customers while maintaining business continuity in the most challenging environments.

Annette Murphy, chief commercial officer, Colt Technology Services said, “Businesses with operations in remote and hard-to-reach areas are disadvantaged by patchy, low-quality access to their enterprise networks. This isn’t just frustrating for them: it slows progress, stifles innovation and excludes them from the digital economy."

"Our new Managed LEO+ service complements our existing fibre network and provides an exciting new option for high-performing, secure network access – and it’s fully managed by Colt, so businesses benefit from our mission to remove complexity and make life easier for them.

Colt's trio of digital infrastructure

Colt's expansive global network spans four continents, with a land-based network in 40 countries and ten subsea systems, including subsea cables and landing stations.

Managed LEO + completes Colt's trio of digital infrastructure across land, sea, and low Earth orbit, offering wide coverage and secure, low-latency networks to help global businesses succeed.
