Celtic Manor Resort tees up superfast fibre optic network for Ryder Cup

Celtic Manor Resort swung the 2010 Ryder Cup into action with a fibre optic network from Virgin Media Business. With a 500% increase in bandwidth from the last Ryder Cup, the Ethernet network supported over 1,500 journalists & 200 photographers to file news and images instantly to over 140 countries. Voted as the UK's best conference venue by Conference & Incentive Travel magazine, Celtic Manor Resort is using the superfast network to extend its leadership in the leisure sector. Scalable videoconferencing provides significant savings for corporate clients and in the future, gives the opportunity to provide 'virtual meals and weddings' between the Resort & other locations around the world.
