Bluebox is a Northern Ireland fixed wireless ISP serving homes and businesses around Londonderry using WiMAX technology.

Independent profile snapshot

This extended snapshot summarises how the provider presents itself in the UK market. It supplements the dataset-led summary above.

Bluebox Broadband is one of the largest independent WiMAX wireless and Metro Ethernet networks operating in the UK and Ireland, registered as Bluebox Broadband Ltd (Companies House NI072511) and headquartered in Londonderry, Northern Ireland. Originating from the NWE Group, which started in 1991 as a mobile-radio services and cellular-site installation business, Bluebox launched its own wireless broadband ISP after the 2004 deregulation of the ISM frequency bands, and has since grown into a network that covers approximately 92% of Northern Ireland and County Donegal via 180+ broadcast points. The service runs on a telecommunications-sites network owned or operated by NWE delivering broadband directly to Enterprise, SME and residential customers where traditional fibre providers cannot reach. Bluebox offers distinct Home, Business and bespoke Enterprise plans (the latter providing high-capacity internet connections for demanding users), with WiMAX wireless and Metro Ethernet technology as its core. After nearly a decade of service to areas other providers overlook, Bluebox has built a strong local reputation in Northern Ireland for rural and cross-border connectivity.
