The day of the WLR3
You are wakened by the sound of the Today program on BBC Radio 4, then the Pips, then John Humphrys tells you it’s 7a.m. and your heart sinks. You get ready to leap out of bed when suddenly you remember it’s Saturday, and you fall back onto the pillow, hit the off button on your radio alarm clock and roll over for another hour or two of well earned blissful sleep.
That feeling of relief and well-being will also be felt by the growing number of CEOs of “calls and lines resellers”, who have chosen Singularity as their WLR3 Integration partner on the day Openreach announce they are turning off the SPG. The rest will be sitting bolt upright, wide eyed and frantically thinking about what to do next!
For that day is coming. Having invested considerable sums of money in WLR3 and effort in separating BTRetail from the Access network, BTGroup won’t want the expense of keeping WLR2 up when WLR3 is fully operational. When that day dawns there will be a rush to get connected, and those at the front of the queue will reap the benefits.
The ever increasing number of Singularity WLR3 users are already seeing the benefits of moving over to WLR3, by improving throughput and decreasing the cost of failure. Getting it right first time is the key to reducing costs and satisfying your customer, and WLR3 will help you with that.
So, while you have the time, why don’t you find out what’s going on and chose your WLR3 partner now rather than jumping into bed with the wrong one at 11th hour?
