NetWorkS! to launch DC-HSPA

As previously reported by CommsUpdate, earlier this month ComCom published the results of its assessment of a series of agreements between Swisscom and local utility providers, expressing its disapproval regarding aspects of the agreement. The ventures set out to share the costs of deploying fibre-optic cables in Swiss cities using a multi-fibre model. [More]
