Adtran today announced the opening of a new 20,000-square-foot

operations, supporting the deployment of its end-to-end fiber
infrastructure solutions, including optical transport, Carrier
Ethernet and access equipment. By enhancing logistics capabilities,

Adtran’s growing customer base. It will support a wide array of
services, such as testing, production and customization of hardware
and software. The facility also underscores Adtran’s commitment to

“Our new distribution center is designed to meet the demands of
the UK’s rapidly expanding fiber broadband network. For over 20
years, York has been central to our UK strategy, serving as a vital
hub that allows us to efficiently support service providers across
the country. This new facility builds on that strong foundation,
enabling faster, more cost-effective and more sustainable
deployments to ensure high-speed broadband reaches both major
cities and remote rural areas across the UK,” said Paulus Bucher,
senior VP of global operations at Adtran. “From our York campus,
we’re providing service providers of all sizes with the tools they
need to build and expand fiber infrastructure. Through our
comprehensive portfolio of networking equipment, from optical
transport and Carrier Ethernet to residential solutions, we’re
ensuring they can deliver high-speed, reliable connectivity from
the core and through the door.”
The new distribution center, Sovereign House, has earned an
“excellent” rating from the Building Research Establishment
Environmental Assessment Method, highlighting its top-tier
environmental performance. It will manage inbound and outbound
shipments, returns and testing, while streamlining the setup,
testing and customization of Adtran’s broad portfolio, including
optical, Ethernet and access solutions. A key focus is the rapid
deployment of Adtran’s OLTs, which enable service providers to
deliver high-performance broadband even to low-density areas. The
new facility will help Adtran ensure that UK service providers can
rapidly expand fiber networks and deliver reliable, multigigabit
connectivity to underserved regions, enhancing broadband access
across the country.
“Sovereign House is part of our strategy to strengthen our
supply chain and ensure resilience against disruptions. By
centralizing logistics, we’re able to enhance efficiency and speed
up the delivery of essential broadband technologies to our UK
customers,” commented Stuart Broome, GM of EMEA sales at Adtran.
“This facility will enable service providers to roll out
multigigabit fiber and AI-driven solutions more rapidly, allowing
them to seize new market opportunities and better serve their
communities nationwide. With sustainability and power efficiency at
the core of its design, Sovereign House also reinforces our
commitment to environmentally responsible operations.”
The new distribution center’s official opening ceremony will be
held today with local dignitaries in attendance.
