Unlock superfast, reliable fibre connectivity for your business – from SMME to corporate 

In today’s hyperconnected world, speed, reliability, and cost efficiency are critical considerations when it comes to connectivity for your business – whether you’re an SMME or a large multinational.

Ensuring fast, always-on, reliable, and affordable connectivity is there when you need it most, across every device and communications platform, in the cloud or on the server, 24/7/365 is non-negotiable.

That’s where fibre connectivity comes in.

Below, MetroFibre unpacks why and how fibre connectivity tops all technology when it comes to speed, reliability, consistency, scalability and cost.

Superfast fibre

With fibre connectivity, you get consistent super-fast upload and download speeds, via a stable, always-on connection with uptime typically above 99%.

Fibre is future-proof

As mobile networks evolve rapidly – 3G, 4G, 5G, now 6G – each upgrade often requires new, costly devices.

Fibre doesn’t work that way – as your business grows and technology advances, fibre is capable of gigabit speeds and is scalable without having to pay for costly equipment upgrades. 

Cost efficiency

When you compare speed, quality, and reliability with cost, nothing beats fibre.

Mobile data is charged per megabit, which gets prohibitively expensive with high usage and when multiple employees are online.

It’s expensive and simply not sustainable or practical for your day-to-day and primary operations. 

Mobility vs stability

Mobile data is just that – designed to be mobile. Great for on-the-go access, but not for powering your office.

While LTE is useful as a temporary solution – during outages or while waiting for fibre installation.

It isn’t cost-effective or reliable as your primary connection – unlike fibre.

The cloud

The Cloud has never been more accessible or affordable for any size business, from SMEs to large corporates.

Because of its high capacity, reliability, security and relatively low cost, fibre internet connectivity provides the best connection over which cloud connectivity takes place.

Transferring data between users and the cloud is a bandwidth-hungry animal.

It requires a fibre connection that can:

  • Carry trillions of bits per second
  • Offer symmetrical upload and download speeds
  • Provide uncontended lines
  • Carry the vast amount of traffic over the internet to and from your cloud host
  • Offer low latency

SLAs

With fibre for your business, you get service level agreements designed to support the connectivity demands of your business, that guarantee uptime and 24/7 technical support – something mobile and LTE packages typically lack.

SMME or Business Internet Access?  

The right fibre connectivity solution is determined by the nature, application and size of the business. 

For an SMME that needs office Wi-Fi, VoIP, cyber security, and hotspots, for example, an uncapped MetroFibre SMME fibre package (from 25 Mbps – 1 Gbps symmetrical) delivers business-grade fibre at an affordable price.

This is perfect for start-ups, retail sites, and professional offices (typically under 20 employees) that want reliability and speed. 

Business Internet Access (BIA) and Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) is designed for businesses where connectivity is mission-critical, with uncontended bandwidth and Basic/Silver/Gold SLAs offering faster restoration and higher availability commitments.

BIA (up to 10 Gbps symmetrical) underpins more intensive cloud workloads, multi-site businesses, and environments with compliance or operational uptime requirements that require their own dedicated internet access, such as financial institutions, ISPs and the like.

As businesses undergo rapid digital transformations, fibre internet connectivity sits at the core of all these changes.

From digital communication to automated workflows and cloud-based operations and AI integration, organisations are adopting technologies that require robust and reliable internet access to fully realise the benefits of their digital initiatives. 

Underpinning it all is a delicate, yet powerful fibre internet connection that makes work happen – whether remotely, in a small business or an expansive multinational operation. 

Your future-proof, hyper-connected, always-on business is a click away!
