Langney Shopping Centre

1Gbps line for high-speed broadband connectivity for tenants and centre operations, along with free WiFi for visitors.
Installation:
December 2024

The Challenge

The standard Openreach broadband connection speeds were inconsistent and slow – a reliable and much faster solution was needed.

The Solution

Lightning Fibre designed and installed a high performance 1Gbps full fibre solution, with connectivity throughout the shopping centre.

The Outcome

A rock-solid, high-speed solution for CCTV, office systems, tenant IT requirements and public WiFi.

Project Overview

Langney Shopping Centre has over 40 retail units, offering a diverse mix of national chains and independent retail, dining and leisure businesses.

Langney Shopping Centre partnered with Lightning Fibre to enhance its digital infrastructure with a high-speed, resilient broadband solution. The goal was to future-proof connectivity for both tenants and centre operations, while also offering free WiFi for the public.

The Challenge

The standard Openreach broadband connection speeds were inconsistent.  With CCTV, office systems and tenant cloud-based systems to run, a more robust solution was essential.

The Solution

Lightning Fibre designed and installed a high performance 1Gbps line with full fibre connectivity throughout the entire building, ready for each unit to use, as well as a visitor WiFi solution.

The Result

The centre now benefits from reliable, high-speed connectivity that supports office and security systems, tenants’ digital requirements and public Wi-Fi.

As a busy shopping centre it is vital that we offer consistent high speed broadband. Lightning Fibre’s engineering team installed a 1Gbps broadband line and wired up the entire building, with no disruption to our day-to-day operations. It is great to have a free reliable WiFi connection for all our visitors too. We are very happy to now work with Southern IT, a local professional IT company, to provide broadband connectivity support to individual businesses in our centre.

“We advised Langney Shopping Centre to use a Lightning Fibre connection because we know we can trust the speed and technical performance of the network. In addition, we avoid the delays and limitations of Openreach with the initial installation, and can rely on their rapid response times if any questions arise.”
