Virgin Media has been selected to deliver broadband network connectivity and services to 40 casinos operated by Genting Casinos.

The service is designed to facilitate communication between staff. Max Lintott, Head of IT, Genting Casinos, said: “Our network is a pivotal platform for our business, so we don’t want to take any risks. The previous generations of data networks were coming to the end of useful life and we need a service that’s going to provide the bandwidth we need now and in the future”.

The ‘superfast’ service, which will be scalable in nature, is expected to be deployed by the end of 2013 and will cover 3,600 casino employees.
