High-capacity internet explained

See when enterprise-grade speeds make sense for your needs.

What is high-capacity internet?

Selecting a high-capacity option means choosing enterprise-grade connectivity designed for performance, reliability, and scalability.

High-capacity internet refers to dedicated, symmetrical connections that deliver equal upload and download speeds (e.g., 100x100 Mbps, 1 Gbps x 1 Gbps). Unlike broadband, which is shared and inconsistent, dedicated internet ensures your business has guaranteed bandwidth at all times.


Key benefits

  • Consistent performance – Upload and download speeds remain equal and reliable.

  • Business productivity – Ideal for video conferencing, cloud services, data backups, and running mission-critical applications.

  • Scalability – As your business grows, higher capacities (1–10 Gbps) can be provisioned to support future demands.


Considerations

  • Investment – Dedicated high-capacity services are more expensive than broadband, but they deliver enterprise-grade reliability.

  • Right sizing – Don’t just chase bigger numbers; match capacity to your actual usage to avoid unnecessary cost.


Next steps

If higher-capacity service fits your business, select it when setting your speed preferences. You’ll see real quotes for these options, and you can always compare with lower speeds before ordering.
