Elevate – Future Faster, the data centre brand from Excel Networking Solutions, continues to build momentum in the EMEA data centre market — with its Config Team recently completing  advanced training in MPO connectivity, delivered by Senko. 

Senko is one of the industry’s most trusted manufacturers of fibre optic connectivity - with solutions at the heart of Elevate’s high-performance MPO portfolio. The recent training covered the full spectrum of MPO best practice: termination, polishing, testing, inspection and cleaning - reinforcing Elevate’s ability to deliver the highest standards for mission-critical data centre infrastructure and ensuring that Elevate’s team is equipped with the latest expertise. 

Andrew Percival, Managing Director of Excel Networking Solutions, commented: “At the core of Elevate is a simple promise - to deliver Future Faster. That means investing in partnerships, in solutions - and in our people.” 

Andrew continued, “When our associates are trained to this level, they approach every project with confidence - and in turn, that helps our customers deliver their projects with equal levels of confidence.” 

This latest investment in people builds on Excel Networking’s decade-long commitment to preconfiguration services, which have seen major expansion over the past 12 months. New facilities at the additional – and three times larger footprint than HQ - warehouse facility, Environ House, include a purpose-built fibre room with dedicated zones for multi-fibre and high-density terminations (MPO, MTP, VSFF), supported by a multi six figure investment in state-of-the-art equipment and capacity. 

Richard Cann, Config Team Manager, added: “As demand for MPO grows, having this expertise in-house gives Elevate and our customers a real advantage - delivering high-quality, UK assembled solutions at speed and scale.” 

Andrew Percival concluded: “Our Powered by Partnerships approach is all about combining best-in-class technology with deep technical knowledge. Senko is a key partner, and together with our investment we’re helping the market deploy future-ready connectivity - faster.”
