History

Our history: Originally launched as MLNet, Airfibre was spun out of Metronet (UK) Limited, which itself was incorporated in late 2003 to provide an independent alternative to legacy leased line (private circuit) services. Metronet now has in excess of 5,000 customers in the UK and Airfibre is emulating its success in Ireland as an established Internet Service Provider.

Following a successful MBO of the business in June 2012 a decision was taken to change the company name from MLNet Limited to Airfibre Limited.

Airfibre continues to grow its customer base throughout the counties of Dublin and Cork, with new towns and cities coming on line through a progressive expansion programme facilitated by Airfibre’s access to a national mast infrastructure.

In addition to servicing public sector organisations, Airfibre customers include leading household names in the hotel & leisure, construction, distribution & logistics, financial, retail, healthcare, print, advertising, postproduction, legal, IT, fashion and food industries all of which depend upon connectivity for Internet, VOIP and IP Telephony services.

The Airfibre network is a pure IP-based 21st Century network providing carrier class wireless last mile Internet and broadband connectivity for Customers anywhere within its areas of coverage independently of legacy carriers.

As a member of RIPE, Airfibre provides a ubiquitous gateway to other networks, ISPs, and the Internet and is also a member of the Ireland’s Internet Neutral Exchange (INEX).
