Case Study: NYnet achieves HSCN compliance and a digital edge for health and social care with Equinix

Achieving Data Compliance To Accelerate Business Growth

NYnet, a Harrogate‑based network service provider operating a resilient 10Gbps fiber network to 750+ public and private sites, wanted to expand into the health and social care sector. To win that business and support a digital‑edge strategy while preserving the cost efficiencies expected by government clients, NYnet needed HSCN compliance to offer secure, standards‑approved connectivity.

NYnet colocated in Equinix’s Manchester IBX and connected to the HSCN peering exchange on Platform Equinix, achieving HSCN Stage 2 compliance with Equinix onboarding support. The solution enabled secure, reliable data exchange for local health and social care organizations, opened new revenue opportunities, reduced network costs (projected savings about £7,000/year), and provided access to cloud providers and a broader healthcare ecosystem for future growth.
