Scalable rural connectivity solution deployed at Cochno Farm
Published: 30 March 2026
Virgin Media O2 has deployed a cost-effective 4G small cell at Cochno Farm, UofG's teaching and research farm. The project is part-funded by the Scottish Government and delivered in collaboration with the Scottish Futures Trust (SFT), VoltServer, and delivery partners ATS and KTL. The deployment demonstrates how mobile connectivity, power delivery, fibre backhaul and IoT services can be combined into a single unified infrastructure at a fraction of the cost of traditional approaches.
