Vodafone signs multi-million dollar deal with Pacific Fibre
VODAFONE SIGNS MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR DEAL: Vodafone New Zealand has agreed to supply international bandwidth to Pacific Fibre's cable system in a multi-million dollar agreement. This 10 year deal will bring competitors into a currently monopolised market and invoke some much needed advances to New Zealand's current system. Pacific Fibre's undersea cable will be connecting New Zealand to Australia then to the USA, hopefully launching in early 2014. CEO of Vodafone Russell Stanners says:
Finally, some much needed progress. I am quite excited to see, in actuality, what this will bring to New Zealand. - posted by Ciaran
