Wireless superfast broadband now installed at Forfar business park

Angus Council has installed wireless superfast broadband at Orchardbank Business Park in Forfar.

The move will help ensure that Orchardbank continues to provide a first-class working environment fit for the 21st Century.

The business park has been developed by Angus Council in association with the Muir Group.

The installation of dedicated superfast wireless broadband and a service provider for businesses can help everyone based at the park to keep pace with local and global demands and opportunities.

Managed by wireless technology specialists Rapier Systems, the network provides high-speed, low-latency and low-contention business grade wireless internet access across the Orchardbank estate. Commercial printers Astute was one of the first companies at the business park to take up the opportunity to benefit from the new internet service.

Andrew Price, director at Astute, said the new connection would enable them to meet demand and help continue to grow their business.
