Direct Connect — business leased lines
The fastest and most reliable internet connection: a dedicated leased line, not shared with anyone else, for businesses that can't be offline.
Direct Connect is our business leased line — the fastest and most reliable internet connection there is. It gives your business its own dedicated connection, not shared with anyone else, with the same speed uploading as downloading.
For businesses that can't stop
If downtime costs you real money — lost calls, stalled payments, idle staff — a dedicated leased line's guaranteed performance pays for itself. We handle the install and the support, and we'll tell you straight if fibre would do the job instead.

FAQs
Common questions
How much does a leased line cost?
It varies with location, speed and contract — there's an install cost and a monthly fee. We'll get you a clear quote for your specific site rather than a vague range, and tell you straight if fibre would do.
How long does installation take?
Leased lines take longer than broadband because the connection is built specifically for you — often a number of weeks. We manage the whole process and can bridge with a temporary connection if needed.
