• About Managed Communications

Small and medium-sized businesses looking for a dedicated and reliable line for their internal communications may look to incorporate an SDSL connection. UK SDSL lines (symmetric digital subscriber line) have been used by companies around the country to provide a cheap and robust alternative when it comes to communications.

So what is SDSL? Essentially, an SHDSL line differs from a standard connection because it does not share bandwidth with other communications devices. UK SDSL lines are a variant of DSL lines, supporting digital data transfer only and dispensing with analogue calls. Physically, it consists of two copper wires and ranges as far as 10,000 feet, which could prove ideal for a small or medium-sized business looking to transfer data at high speeds without typical internet traffic and the need for a leased line.

All UK SDSL services bypass Frame Relay - a data transmission technique in which information is passed between different destinations via intermediate node points - providing the customer with a dedicated connection that is not shared with any other line. In addition, firms in the UK who choose SDSL over cable, satellite or traditional DSL lines can rest in the knowledge that UK SDSL connections are among the most secure to be found anywhere.

UK SDSL lines can reach high speeds up to four times that of traditional broadband services by uploading and downloading data at the same rate - perfect for companies hosting internal websites and e-mail servers. Furthermore, those who invest in an SDSL service will benefit from a contention ratio of 10:1, meaning that it will not feel the strain during periods of high network demand.

Firms who require high-speed data exchange with stability and ease may find it advantageous to look to SDSL the next time they re-evaluate their communications service.
