About Photonic Networks
'Connecting Bradford' is the headline on Photonic Networks' website, and the city is where the company is based. Much of its work is in shared buildings. It offers broadband for student houses and halls, landlords, hotels and Airbnb lets, and new-build estates and flats, alongside plans for individual homes and businesses.
For bigger customers such as student halls, Photonic says it duplicates the key parts of its access equipment as standard. If one part fails, the load moves to a backup automatically and the faulty part is swapped during office hours, so users should not notice. It also says it provides rural broadband across Yorkshire.
Business services on its site include web hosting, server colocation, guest access broadband and phone lines. The company was registered in April 2023.
