Optical Connect – optical network services
A high bandwidth optical network solution for when you need the best possible performance.
What is Optical Connect?
Expand your global network infrastructure with high-performance optical fibre connectivity.
Global organisations are facing more international network traffic than ever before and the need for larger bandwidths will only continue to increase. Your networks are the lifeblood of your – and your customers’ – businesses, and a surge in multimedia, cloud service apps, IoT, and more, means increased pressure to keep them flowing.
To add value to existing customers, attract new ones, and be future-ready, you need the bandwidth capability to match with an optical network you can rely on.
Optical Connect empowers you to do just this, leading your own digital transformation and growing with the demand. Using dedicated, point-to-point links to connect your global sites, it provides exception levels of resilience, capacity, and guaranteed high speeds.
How does Optical Connect work?
Improving your internet connected world.
With dedicated point-to-point links connecting your global sites, Optical Connect can transfer huge amounts of international traffic data in a fraction of the time of an IP-based solution, including voice, data, and IP traffic.
It’s not only lightning-fast but also incredibly secure, using a private connection delivered as a point-to-point solution so it isn’t open to attack.
Our service offers a range of bandwidths in key locations across the globe and we’ve already pre-connected some of the most popular locations. This lets you buy the bandwidths you need with minimal time spent on initial set-up.
Optical connect is a fully managed, end-to-end service meaning we’ll deal with everything from installation to maintenance, leaving you time to focus on business-critical tasks.
