FAQs About Our Business Broadband Solutions

Find quick, clear answers to the most common questions regarding our Business Internet Access (BIA) solutions, service guarantees, and network reliability.

How does BIA differ from DIA?

Business internet access (BIA) is a cost-effective shared service delivered over our fiber network, ideal for small to medium-sized businesses with standard needs. Dedicated internet access (DIA) is a private, dedicated fiber connection that guarantees the highest performance and uptime for large enterprises and mission-critical applications.

How is speed consistency maintained during peak usage on shared BIA?

We ensure consistency because our BIA service is delivered over our business-only fiber network (not shared with residential traffic) and is backed by a Service Level Agreement (SLA) guaranteeing specific performance metrics like 99.9% availability.

How is BIA more cost-effective than a full Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) solution?

BIA provides symmetrical speeds and enterprise-grade reliability over fiber, but at a lower price point because the bandwidth is shared among fewer users (business-only). It offers the performance needed for VoIP and video conferencing without the premium cost of a fully dedicated 1:1 DIA circuit.
