What is a leased line?An Internet leased line connects your business directly to the Internet using a dedicated fibre connection. As your Internet connection is not shared over normal telephone lines (as ADSL / Broadband is) you can be guaranteed a consistent speed, a more reliable connection and improved security. The leased line connection is symmetrical which means that you have the option to upload data at the same speed as you can download data. A lot of UK businesses are deciding to lease their own dedicated Internet connection. If your business relies on the Internet quite heavily to undertake it's daily routines then a leased line is highly recommended. The benefits that the line provides are ideal for any company willing to go the extra mile for their business. |
High speeds
When you commission an internet leased line you will make two decisions on speed; Firstly how fast you want your connection to run day to day (your throughput) secondly what type of bearer you want (this governs the maximum speed your connection will be able to achieve without further installation). Throughput speeds can be anywhere from 2Mpbs up to 1Gb depending on what you need. If you would like to talk through which speed set up might work best for your business request a consultation.
Guaranteed, consistent speedIf you are using a traditional broadband connection you may have noticed your internet connections slowing down at peak times, or even slowing down at the end of the month if your ISP has a fair usage policy. With a Leased Line you will be the only company using this connection (1:1 contention ratio), giving you guaranteed and consistent speeds both up and downstream. A 10Mbps leased line will give you 10Mbps for both upload and download all day, every day. Improved security |
