Direct Internet Access
Direct Internet Access
DIA (Direct Internet Access) ensures high bandwidth, reliable connectivity and robust security because your connection run straight from your premises to the local exchange, meaning no other businesses share the connection. This means there’s no drops in speed during peak times and it’s much harder for external entities to gain access to their network.
With DIA, your speeds are symmetrical, both up- and downloading files, and you can enjoy speeds all the way up to 10Gbps. Plus, in 2025 the PSTN and ISDN services will be deactivated. These were required for landline calling, but as we move closer to an entirely digital future and VoIP solutions are becoming more popular, you need a connection that will remain reliable no matter how many calls your team needs to make

If any of the points below apply to you, switching to DIA could be the best way forward
- Require 24/7 reliable access to cloud services like file transfers and high bandwidth services like video calling.
- Downtime or a slow connection would cause real damage to your income and reputation.
- Security is a massive concern for your business, whether due to customer data or industry regulations.
- Looking to adopt an SD-WAN network model in the near future.
