Why Wireless Symmetrical Broadband trumps ADSL!

If all your business needs is to allow a few users to surf the Internet and send a few emails then actually, ADSL does a really good job.

However, business are increasingly looking at what the internet can do for them, by using web based applications and services such as:

  • Software as a service
  • Voice over IP
  • Multi Media Streaming
  • Collaborative Online Working
  • Website hosting
  • Centrex

The more these are used, the less applicable ADSL becomes, for the following reasons:

  • Contention - you share the bandwidth with up to fifty other people
  • Non symmetrical - uplink or upstream speeds are a fraction of the downlink / downstream capacity (usually between 5-10%)
  • Best Efforts - almost all ADSL services are provided on a best efforts basis.

Even high speed ADSL connections start to fall down quickly when your business wants to start taking advantage of all the things that Web2.0 has to offer.

That's when your business needs its own guaranteed Business Broadband Internet Access, and that's when it's time to talk to On-Communications

Our Business Internet connections offer not only high capacity symmetrical Broadband, but also industry-leading low latency.

Low latency Internet connectivity provides an ideal access platform from which to exploit other leading edge services that improve service or cut costs, such as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), live video for conferencing or narrowcasting, and advance messaging and value added communications solutions.
