NEWS UK virtual network operator Vanco has announced a five-year channel partner agreement with US firm ARINC.

ARINC will offer its new and existing customers Vanco's MPLS Matrix and IP Secure solutions - the technical heartbeat of the west London firm's virtual network operator model.

ARINC sells into the transport, aerospace and airline industries and operates in 150 countries worldwide.

Vanco claims its DSL solution, which is targeted at multi-site, multi-region networks, will be ideal for the airline industry and will enable companies to bring high-speed networking to cargo operations, remote ticket offices and regional airports.

Allen Timpany, CEO of Vanco, said ARINC's airline pedigree makes it a "very powerful" ally for Vanco.

Earlier this year Vanco sealed a deal with British Airways.

Vanco is running its 10th annual Three Peaks Challenge this summer. Click here to find out more.
