Leased lines
Speed of communication between customers, suppliers and multiple sites has never been more important. With the Internet 'one size' does not fit all, every Internet solution needs to fit the requirement.
Over the following pages is an outline of our leased line solutions, over and above this we work with clients in order to understand their specific needs and try to install the right solution first time every time. We can provide high-speed access across the UK.
Interconnect
Clients have a low entry cost for fixed rate Internet access circuits through our interconnect leased line circuits, ranging in access rates from 64K through to 1Gbps. Connectivity is delivered uncontended at an access rate determined by the capacity of the line. Static IP addresses are provided as required. As with all our leased line circuits, connections are monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Interconnect lines are high speeds Internet access circuits, companies interested in private point to point lines between sites should see our corporate VPN products.
Interconnect leased lines come with a 99.95 Service Level Guarantee (SLG) and can be presented as ethernet, X.21 or G.703.
Bandwidth on demand
A bandwidth on demand leased line is a fixed cost uncontended access method with speeds available from 2Mbps to over 1Gbps. Designed to give companies a flexible way to provision Internet access and future proof infrastructure investment.
A line is installed that has capacity to handle either predicted Internet usage in the mid-long term or with the capacity to handle traffic at peak times, useful for companies whose Internet usage fluctuates such as those broadcasting streaming media services.
Internet transit (bandwidth) can be supplied to the connection in 128K increments on a month-to-month basis; upgrades/downgrades are carried out within 24 hours, this avoids the need to install a new line as bandwidth grows or having to pay from the outset for bandwidth that isn't used.
Bandwidth on demand leased lines come with guaranteed levels of service and connection uptime (99.85%). Pro-Net connections are available both with or without router hardware and can be supplied to any location on the UK mainland.
