The upgrade will enable Neos Networks to provide capacities up to 10Gbps as standard, giving businesses more flexible and scalable options to meet their unique connectivity needs.
Previously the service was only available up to 1Gbps, but the upgrade will provide a fully managed, enterprise-grade fibre solution to meet the ever-increasing bandwidth demand and need for reliable internet access.
The latest upgrade will provide access to the same bandwidths across its Wires-only DIA and Managed DIA variants, with a clearer upgrade path.
Under the new upgrade, services will be monitored and managed 24/7 by Neos Networks. The altnet provider will also manage the maintenance and break/fix of the router.
In addition, the service has been optimised for reduced energy consumption and rack space when combined with services such as Neos Networks access tails.
Neos Networks launched a 10Gbps Wires-only DIA service in 2020 to meet expected demand. This latest upgrade of Managed DIA will enable customers who are currently using multiple 1Gbps circuits to scale their bandwidth as part of the same service.
Mark Charlesworth, director of product at Neos Networks, said, “Our continued investment in our business internet proposition means Neos Networks is now able to provide the same scalable bandwidth across a range of different service models throughout the UK. This provides a much-simplified upgrade path for customers with increasing bandwidth requirements, delivering the level of service they need in a flexible and scalable way.”
Managed DIA enables more proactive monitoring and advanced analytics to support network maintenance and availability. Neos Networks’ MPLS core network also ensures that services provided by Managed DIA are highly resilient.
Its Managed DIA service is supported by 24/7 technical assistance, providing a broad selection of last-mile connectivity providers. The service is also backed by Neos Networks' extensive network coverage, which includes more than 676 high-speed Ethernet Points of Presence across the nation, thus enhancing the quality of its DIA services and ensuring reliable access. All traffic to and from a business's network is also securely transported over Neos Networks’ network and IP platform.
