BTnet Leased Line

Guaranteed upload speeds of up to 10Gb with a leased line

Guaranteed upload speed

Upload speed is the rate at which your Internet connection sends data up-stream to the Internet.

Most Internet services focus on download speed, but depending on your business type, guaranteed upload speed can be critical.

Upload speeds will be essential to your business if you:

  • share large data files
  • stream HD video
  • provide online content
  • host data at a head office

What are typical upload speeds?

Upload speed for business broadband connections is usually up to 1Mb. However BTnet Leased Lines offers:

  • upload speeds between 10Mb to 10Gb
  • flexible upload speeds tailored to your specific needs
  • guaranteed upload speeds as well as download speeds
  • symmetric or asymmetric upload/download speed options

This makes BTnet Leased Line highly cost effective if your business data flows are greater out to the Internet, rather than from the Internet e.g:

  • online content providers
  • companies that stream data
  • hosting companies

What is a Leased Line?

A leased line is a dedicated circuit linking to the Internet that won't slow down, even during peak traffic periods. Leased Lines suit a wide variety of companies, especially those who run business-critical applications over the Internet.

BTnet Leased Line delivers the highest quality service availability; fast upload speeds, data transfer and Internet security, and is the UK's number 1 leased line service.
