Gamma already provides communications services to the UK business market, with a particular focus on fixed voice and data services, but now it’s going one step further and launching a new business mobile service.
Gamma Mobile is set to launch in the first half of 2016 and will use the core mobile network infrastructure that Gamma acquired in 2014 and has been expanding upon since.
That core network has all the functionality of a mobile network, including support for 4G, Voice over Wi-Fi and VoLTE.
Gamma has partnered with Three to provide the primary radio access in the UK, with that network in particular chosen based on its ‘excellent independent performance results’.
Rob Davis, Head of Converged Products at Gamma commented: “Following the acquisition of a core network in 2014, we’ve been working hard to build a unique new service that addresses the needs and challenges of today’s business market. This gives us full control of the mobile service, in addition to the control we already have over our fixed voice and data network.
“We recognise the importance of mobility in an increasingly converged world and see this new service as a core component and the foundation for Gamma’s converged offering moving forward, enabling us to take our portfolio of voice, data and mobile solutions to the next level.”
Gamma Mobile will include 4G as standard on all tariffs. The company also promises improved data monitoring with near real-time mediation and billing, as well as more flexible data usage alerts.
By adding this new network to its portfolio Gamma believes it will be well placed to provide converged fixed and mobile services to the UK business market.
