SDSL and Leased Line services
Unlike the popular ADSL service, SDSL and Leased Line services provide symmetric bandwidth. This means that your outgoing bandwidth is the same as your incoming bandwidth. This makes the service suitable for companies that need to host their own web servers in-house, and those that have requirements for substantial outgoing traffic.
Common uses include Head Office connections where there is a requirement for many VPN connections from branch offices or to roving or home users.
SDSL services are provided on a contention basis in a similar manner to ADSL, The maximum contention ratio is 10:1 which means you are effectively sharing your bandwidth with 9 other companies. Consequently the service charges are substantially lower than the equivalent Leased Line service.
