FIBRE & LTE SERVICES

Super fast, unlimited home & business internet

Fibre to the home/office much faster and more reliable vs cable internet or DSL. But it has other major advantages like no throttling and better TV picture quality.

Fiber optic internet works by splitting files like movies and games into data packets of zeroes and ones. A laser flashes this Morse code-type signal into one end of a plastic or glass filament. The “wire” is about as thick as one strand of human hair.

A special sheath called a cladding keeps the beam of light inside the filament. It bounces off the walls for as far as 60 miles and pops out the other end where a modem decodes the light into a form your computer can use.

10 reasons you should consider Fibre over DSL:

SPEED

Fiber optic internet speed is 1 Gbps. That’s 10 to 20 times speedier than the 50 to 100 Mbps cable most of us know now. For a concrete fiber optic vs cable internet speed comparison, see the list below. It shows how long it takes to download a 2-hour movie on fiber optic vs cable internet.

RELIABILITY

Your cable connection should be fast enough to stream video without interruption, but peak traffic overloads the wires. That’s where fiber optic internet vs cable speed differences get obvious. Fiber optics can handle more users and more data at consistently higher speeds.

Another bonus? Fiber optic cable internet doesn’t need energized lines, so it’s not as prone to outages as cable internet. As long as the fiber optic cable stays intact, it can keep delivering your bits and bytes even when the lights are out.

NO THROTTLING

Weather extremes can overload our powerlines. Everyone is maxing out their A/C at the same time.

The same thing happens with our cable internet systems. Internet providers use “throttling” to prevent those outages. At peak times, your ISP may lower your cable speed from 100 Mbps to 20 or lower to ration their service. Fiber optic internet speed doesn’t throttle because it’s less susceptible to overload.

COMPARATIVE UP & DOWNLOAD SPEEDS

With fiber optic internet speed, that slow upload time goes out the window. Because there’s no worry of overloading the system, fiber optic internet providers can give equal shrift to uploads and downloads alike.

That makes it easier to share files and work from home with fiber optic cable internet service.

HIGHER QUALITY TV

With speeds of 100 Mbps or less, cable internet may struggle at times to deliver 4K internet streaming. Fiber optic internet service won’t even bat an eye at it.

A fiber optic connection running at even a sub-optimal 500 Mbps should have no trouble streaming high-quality 4K TV and movies.

BETTER GAMEPLAY

A tiny hiccup at the wrong moment can get you killed in your game of choice. And there are lots of little hiccups in a cable internet or DSL connection all the time.

Thanks to fiber optic internet providers, the smooth and constant flow of data means whenever you twitch your mouse hand, the game obeys

HEALTHIER

According to the World Health Organization (WHO) says there’s no reason to fear 5G wireless internet signals because they can’t penetrate human skin.

But hundreds of scientists and medical professionals recently petitioned the WHO, claiming 5G will boosts the potential for cancer. Fiber optic signals remain trapped in their cables, so they don’t carry those fears

MULTIPLE CONNECTIONS

Fiber optic internet providers ride to the rescue. The steady signal with less signal loss and 10 times more bandwidth means we can connect with multiple tablets, laptops, and several phones at once.

Even with different people streaming music and video simultaneously, fiber optics can handle the load.

SAFETY

Faster connections from fiber optic cable internet service and 5G aren’t just for fun; they’ll make our world a safer place.

Businesses, households and even first responders need faster, more reliable internet to get voice, data, and video to help them save lives.

Better internet also gives all us deeper access to emergency services. It also provides more reliable notification in times of disaster and stronger national security.

TELEMEDICINE

Telemedicine lets health care professionals evaluate, diagnose, and even treat patients remotely. Much faster fiber optic internet speeds make telemedicine more reliable, thanks to higher resolution video chats.

It can help the elderly and those with disabilities live more independently as well.

SPEAK TO YOUR AREA EXPERT

LTE is your fast wireless internet solution for people on the move – speed when and where you need it.

LTE or Long Term Evolution is the standard for wireless data transmission that allows you to download your favorite music, websites, and video really fast—much faster than you could with the previous technology.

LTE moves large packets of data to an internet protocol system (IPS). Old ways of moving data used Code-division multiple access (CDMA) and the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), and those methods moved only small amounts of data.

LTE can handle much more data transfer, and it helps streamline your service.

What are the benefits of LTE?

QUICKER DOWNLOAD SPEEDS

4G’s download speeds can reach as high as 100 Mbps, enabling faster access to content and online applications. A study found that in organizations using LTE, 67 percent have seen productivity increases while 47 percent were able to cut costs.

FASTER WEB BROWSING

Faster download and upload speeds enable us to transfer large amounts of data between users. As mentioned earlier, 4G LTE also reduces latency so that data travels faster between one point in a network to another.

That means less time to load webpages, back up data on the cloud and remotely access files.

HIGHER QUALITY VIDEO & LIVE STREAMING

From streaming services to video conferencing software, we have become increasingly dependent on using video to stay connected online.

Many businesses with remote locations use real-time 4G video feeds to monitor these sites, often overseeing multiple locations from just one office.

LONGER BATTERY LIFE

Reduced latency means that data transfers go much faster and use less power. By using LTE, users can extend the life of their smartphone batteries.

4G LTE uses slightly more power than previous generations, but it moves data so much faster that it can complete a task more quickly.

DECREASED NETWORK LOADS

Because LTE transfers large amounts of data between people, it seems that network usage would increase. However, the faster data speed and reduced latency mean that the data moves very quickly, reducing any load on the network.

This results in fewer crashes in service, which can be essential for businesses that must stay connected to the cloud, like companies with multiple remote locations.
