Connexin Networks Limited is the network-operating subsidiary within the Connexin Group, the Hull-based Smart Cities, full-fibre and IoT operator whose full-fibre infrastructure was acquired by CityFibre in March 2025. Registered at Companies House (12875251, incorporated 13 September 2020) at 9th Floor, 107 Cheapside, London EC2V 6DN and led by directors Dr Furqan Alamgir and Ka Yiu Yeung, the entity sits under parent Connexin Limited (05823408) and is classified under SIC 61100 (Wired telecommunications activities) and SIC 61200 (Wireless telecommunications activities). Connexin Networks historically operated the wholesale and network-infrastructure side of the business, supporting Connexin's retail broadband services across Hull and East Riding (over 80,000 premises passed pre-acquisition), the Project Gigabit Nottinghamshire and West Lincolnshire contract (targeting 34,000 hard-to-reach premises) and the group's wider Smart Cities and IoT deployments. Following the March 2025 strategic agreement, CityFibre is integrating the XGS-PON network into its wholesale platform, while Connexin continues as a brand focused on Smart Home, Enterprise, Public Sector, Utilities and IoT products such as LoRaWAN.
