High-speed broadband available in North Yorkshire. Limited offer of free installation and router on selected packages.
Fibre Internet
Fibre has long been viewed as the next step in broadband because it provides light-speed access speeds beyond what is available through slower cable or DSL connections. Speeds can range from 1 megabits per second up to 1000 Mbps. The financial gains from Fibre internet connectivity can be immediate. Fibre enables a business to reach more customers whilst reducing telecoms costs and increasing the agility of business operations.
NYnet - Europe's biggest public sector broadband initiative
You may have heard about the high capacity, resilient and cost effective fibre network that NYnet and NYCC initiated to alleviate the problems the public sector were experiencing in terms of connectivity. This network is now available to business parks and managed workspace through collaboration with the owners, landlords and IT providers of parks and workspaces.
The top 6 business benefits of fibre optic broadband
- VoIP - extremely low telephone call costs and zero line rental.
- Disaster recovery - remote offsite backups are now a reality because of the fast upload speed that fibre provides.
- Hosted applications – fast Internet speeds means fast access to application servers off-site.
- Faster downloads & uploads – fibre networks are light years ahead of copper based networks.
- Remote access – remotely connecting to the office from home or from a customer/supplier site can be a painfully slow experience on ADSL.
- Video conferencing – ‘blue sky’ for most organisations up until now. The practical and commercial benefits for reducing travel costs and the time taken to get together (without losing the undisputed value of a face-to-face meeting) is within easy reach.
Unlike ADSL Broadband, a copper-wire based technology originally designed for web browsing and email, fibre offers optical telecommunications with much faster speeds and guaranteed performance for both uploads and downloads. Companies that need to be more competitive in the digital age need fibre communications because they can utilise a single fibre connection to handle simultaneous telephone calls to their customers and suppliers, provide reliable remote worker access to company systems whilst handling growing email and web browsing traffic – essential for a modern business.
Fibre vs. Copper
ADSL broadband and leased lines cannot punch above their weight. Fibre optic broadband from Save9 is vastly more scalable. Incredible upstream and downstream performance offering tremendous competitive advantage.
Optical Fibre Technology
Faced with the fundamental shortfalls of satellite and copper based broadband (e.g. e.g. SDLS and ADSL) in achieving high-performance internet connectivity; fibre-optic technology offers many unrivalled advantages, some of which are listed below:
- Enormous potential bandwidth - the optical carrier frequency of fibre offers bandwidth way beyond what can be obtained using copper cable or radio telecommunications systems. This enables fibre to simultaneously transmit voice, data, images and video signals.
- Small size and weight - an optical fibre strand is often no wider than the diameter of a human hair; even after applying protective layers they are far smaller and much lighter than corresponding copper cables. This is a tremendous advantage to alleviate congestion of underground ducting in towns, cities and business/industrial parks.
- Immunity to interference and cross talk - fibre-optic cables are dielectric and therefore are free from electromagnetic interference.
- Signal security - as light from a fibre does not radiate significantly, a transmitted optical signal cannot be intercepted non-invasively, thus ensuring a high degree of signal security.
- Low transmission loss - with attenuation (also known as transmission loss) as low as 0.2 dB/km, this feature alone has become a major advantage of optical fibre - as extremely wide spacing is possible between repeaters (70 to 100km) making fibre ideal for long-haul communication links. This in turn reduces both system cost and complexity.
- System reliability and ease of maintenance - due to the low loss property, system reliability is generally enhanced in comparison to conventional electrical conductor systems. Furthermore, reliability of optical components have predicted lifetimes of 20 to 30 years. These factors reduce overall maintenance time and costs.
Do you need Fibre?
Smarter companies are looking elsewhere for alternatives to expensive leased lines or slower DSL Broadband - a copper-wire based technology that was originally designed for web browsing and email; because they intend to be more competitive in the digital age.
There are many benefits of combining your web, email, telephony and remote access. The biggest motivator of convergence is to save time and money. The internet has clearly transformed the business landscape over the past decade and those companies that adopt faster, reliable and more scalable internet technologies to keep ahead of the competition will be better placed for more prosperous times ahead.
