Leased Lines :

A Leased Line is a permanently connected telecom's link used for voice, data and Internet traffic dedicated to a particular customer delivered along predetermined routers.

This private link or 'circuit' as it is often called, is installed between only two points, your premises and our network to provide a dedicated and reliable "always on" Internet access.

There are many different types of Leased Lines, but in the UK the generic term, 'Leased Line' is used to denote a wide range of line types and speeds, for instance T1/T3 /E1/ E2/ DSO/ DS1 etc.

Each of the terms above, are ways of describing the speed of the connection. For instance a T1 Leased Line gives you 1.544mb/s, a DS0 is the common 64Kb/s, a E1 which is a very popular middle ground choice, offers 2.054mb per second.

To make life easy, most people talk of the entire private circuit technology as Leased Lines and then simply determine what speed they need to support their business, this can be anything from 64k to 2mb to 4Mb etc.
