Fibre-first connectivity for business sites

Fibre is the default choice for most businesses when it's available. The only real question is which tier fits your operational risk: dedicated 1:1 (Enterprise), shared business-grade (Business), or broadband where feasible.

Primary decision
Risk vs cost
Pick the tier that matches downtime impact.
Availability
Address-dependent
We confirm feasible tiers and lead times.
Continuity
Add failover
LTE/wireless for sites where uptime matters.

Choose your fibre tier

Most sites are best served by Business Fibre. Move to Enterprise Fibre when you need dedicated performance or stronger SLA posture. Use Broadband Fibre only where it's the realistic option.

Enterprise Fibre
1:1 Dedicated

For critical sites

Dedicated bandwidth for predictable performance and the strongest operational posture.

  • Best for cloud-heavy and latency-sensitive workloads
  • Ideal for multi-site head office dependencies
  • Better fit when downtime is expensive
  • SLA-aligned support model (tier dependent)
Business Fibre
1:3 Shared

The default choice

Business-grade fibre that balances performance and commercial sense.

  • Great for offices and standard operations
  • Strong fit for email, cloud apps, VPN, typical voice
  • Monitoring and support model designed for business
  • Add LTE/wireless failover where required
Broadband Fibre

Where feasible

For lighter usage scenarios or when higher tiers aren't available at the address.

  • Best for low-risk sites and lighter usage
  • Address-dependent availability and lead times
  • Upgrade path to Business/Enterprise where needed
  • Continuity recommended for critical workflows
