Broadband for Business

These days you need to connect your business to the Internet, and to keep your staff productive, dial-up just won't do. There are a lot of considerations when choosing to connect your network to the Internet, not least of which is the new Privacy Legislation. Bluegum IT can tailor a BLUEGUM DSL package to suit your needs including routers, firewalls and Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), always with SECURITY in mind.

BLUEGUM DSL services fall in to two categories:

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL)
These services provide a greater downstream throughput than upstream throughput. ADSL is the right choice for most businesses as the amount of data downloaded far exceeds the amount of data downloaded.

Symmetric High-Density Digital Subscriber Line (SHDSL)
These services provide equal throughput downstream and upstream. SHDSL is the right choice for businesses who want to host their own Internet available services eg. web server.
