Cost-effective choices
Choose from point-to-point and point-to-multi-point dedicated connections and uni-directional or bi-directional service. With our wide range of data services including dedicated business Internet and Ethernet Metro LAN, you can cost-effectively customize video transmission services to best suit your company's needs.

Reliable and responsive service

Extensive network coverage
Being on or near net is a high probability. Our 450-kilometre fibre-optic network has more than 400 commercial buildings on net, and few carriers can match our broad fibre-optic coverage in the older downtown core.
