Connectivity
Connectivity
that keeps working.
Full fibre, leased lines and automatic 4G/5G backup, sized around what your business genuinely needs to stay online.
Speed that matches the workload
Sized for your users, cloud apps and voice traffic — not a headline figure.
Resilience built in
Backup connectivity takes over automatically if the primary line drops.
Every site connected
One design, one supplier and one point of contact across locations.
Primary line. Automatic backup. Business as usual.
Your primary FTTP or leased line carries everyday traffic. If it fails, 4G or 5G backup picks up automatically — calls keep ringing and card machines keep working while the fault is fixed.
What's included
FTTP broadband
Full fibre where it is available at your site.
Leased lines
Dedicated, uncontended bandwidth with symmetric speeds.
4G/5G backup
Automatic failover so a fault isn't a shutdown.
Multi-site design
Consistent connectivity across every location.
Managed migration
Surveyed, scheduled and switched with minimal disruption.
Voice-ready
Configured so calls stay clear alongside data.

Choosing the right business connection
The right connection is the one that matches how your business uses the internet, not simply the largest headline number. A design studio moving large files, an office running everything in the cloud and a shop taking card payments all put very different demands on a line.
We start with the practical questions: how many people are on site, which applications matter most, whether your phones run over the same connection, how much upload you genuinely need, and what would happen if the line went down for a morning. Those answers point clearly to broadband, full fibre or a dedicated circuit, and they usually settle the question of whether backup is worth having.
Business broadband and FTTP
Business broadband is a shared service, which is what keeps it affordable. Full fibre (FTTP) runs fibre all the way to your premises rather than to a street cabinet, which lifts both speed and consistency considerably over older copper-based services.
For many small and medium businesses FTTP is the sensible choice. It comfortably supports cloud applications, video meetings and a hosted phone system, and where availability allows, it is quick to install. Because the service is contended, performance can vary at busy times, which is exactly the trade-off to weigh up before deciding whether a dedicated circuit is justified.
What a leased line is and when it is appropriate
A leased line is a dedicated circuit between your premises and the network. It is not shared with other users, so the bandwidth you buy is the bandwidth you get, at any time of day.
That matters when downtime or congestion has a direct cost: contact teams whose calls all run over the connection, offices where every system is hosted, businesses moving large volumes of data, or sites where several dozen people rely on the same line all day. It is a bigger commitment than broadband, so we are honest about when it is genuinely warranted and when a well-chosen full fibre service with backup would serve you better.
Dedicated speeds and service resilience
Dedicated circuits are usually symmetric, meaning upload matches download. That is more significant than it sounds — video calls, cloud backups, hosted voice and large file uploads all lean on the upload side, which is where standard broadband is weakest.
Resilience is the other half of the conversation. Depending on the site we can look at a second connection on a different technology, automatic failover so traffic moves across without anyone intervening, and sensible prioritisation so voice traffic is protected when the network is busy. We explain what each option protects you against, so you can decide what is proportionate.
4G and 5G backup connectivity
Mobile backup is one of the most cost-effective pieces of business continuity available. A 4G or 5G service sits alongside your primary line and takes over automatically if it fails, keeping email, card payments, cloud systems and calls running while the fault is fixed.
It also has a useful role beyond backup: temporary sites, new premises waiting for a fibre installation date, and locations where fixed options are limited can all run on mobile connectivity. We assess likely signal at the address before recommending it, so the solution is based on your location rather than a general promise.
Connectivity for multiple locations
Multi-site organisations benefit from being designed as one estate rather than a collection of independent offices. Consistent equipment, consistent configuration and one provider make faults far quicker to diagnose and changes far easier to roll out.
We look at how sites need to reach each other and your central systems, where resilience genuinely matters, and how the wider network and Wi-Fi at each location should be built to match. Head office and a small satellite site rarely need identical solutions, and there is no benefit in paying as though they do.
Installation and migration
Once a service is chosen, the work is in the detail. We handle the order, keep you updated on progress, coordinate access for engineers, and plan how and when your traffic moves onto the new connection.
Wherever possible we run the new service alongside the old one and switch over at an agreed time, so the changeover is planned rather than disruptive. Router configuration, firewall rules and anything else that needs to follow the change are dealt with as part of the same piece of work.
Why choose SY+ for connectivity
We give independent advice rather than pushing one product. If a straightforward full fibre service with mobile backup will do the job, we will say so, and we will explain the trade-offs of every option rather than leaving you to interpret a technical specification.
We also support the services that sit on top of the connection — phones, business mobiles and IT — so problems are diagnosed properly instead of bouncing between suppliers. Ask us to check what is available at your address and we will price the realistic options for your sites.
