Intec Micros agrees Nokia distributor service deal. Posted on Monday, April 13, 2026 - 12:36 Intec Micros has signed a master distributor service agreement with Nokia to expand the distribution of fixed networks products across the UK altnet market, delivering a fully integrated end-to-end router lifecycle solution built around its service-led model.

The agreement will boost certainty and control over supply chain continuity, allowing companies greater focus on their core value proposition. The new model replaces fragmented internal processes with a single, integrated solution, and Intec will be the main accountable partner for altnet providers by holding stock, ensuring next-day device readiness and simplifying operations by fully managing returns and warranty. This approach allows providers to focus on network expansion and customer growth to directly drive competitive advantage, with Intec delivering the service-led backbone needed for altnets' efficient scale. The Nokia partnership will also give customers access to Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 routers, using a lifecycle model that supports faster activation, reduced operational risk and lower total cost of ownership.
