The Crucible Theatre, legendary home of the World Snooker Championship chooses internet connectivity from On-Communications
On-Communications, the UK market leader in Fixed Wireless Access (FWA), has provided multiple internet connectivity circuits to support Sheffield Theatres three performance venues of the world famous Crucible Theatre, Lyceum and Studio Theatres. A connection has also been provided to support a separate temporary office complex during a refurbishment works at the Crucible Theatre.
The guaranteed performance service from On-Communications provides all internet and data connectivity to enable Sheffield Theatres to host their own email servers and web site. The On-Communications service has replaced the two business class SDSL connections that could not keep pace with Sheffield Theatres’ growing demand. On-Communications’ fast and proven service, with “burst” capabilities for peak use periods, will be particularly important during major events including the World Snooker Championship.
The first connection from On-Communications supports a number of mission critical applications – online booking, email and traffic from the international media centre. The second connection supports a temporary office complex and administration function during the refurbishment project at the Crucible Theatre.
Chris Blackburn, IT Manager at Sheffield Theatres, said:
“…On-Communications’ solution was quick and painless to install and worked perfectly from the beginning. …we also appreciate the flexibility of both the FWA connection and On-Communications the company, which is invaluable during the refurbishment process we are currently going through.”
