Inspired will provide a broadband connection over Tiscali’s Local Loop Unbundled (LLU) network to over 90,000 entertainment terminals to keep them regularly updated with the latest content, including games, music downloads and a range of other digital services.

Nathan Francis, general manager for Tiscali Business Services said: “We are delighted that yet another business is taking advantage of our LLU network to deliver cost savings to its customers. The new partnership really helps to cement Tiscali as a leader in wholesale LLU.” Tiscali began its investment in LLU in 2005 and is currently rolling out its LLU network, with a target of 600 exchanges nationally by the end of 2006.

Connections to the Tiscali network will run over two links in two different sites, providing a more robust service and better experience for Inspired’s customers.

Norman Crowley, joint CEO at Inspired, said: “As one of the global leaders in Server- Based Gaming we require the most sophisticated broadband service to supply our clients. Tiscali is a fast-moving, innovative company which has a very similar outlook to us here at Inspired. When we decided to take advantage of LLU and move away from BT, we looked at a number of potential partners but felt Tiscali was best suited to fulfil our needs.”

The Tiscali deal will also be allowing Inspired to build a data recovery facility within Tiscali’s Milton Keynes data centre.
