Note
that MP3 music files, many software applications and
large documents with many graphics are typically between
3-10 MBytes.
Always-on
You can have it on all the time, every day without any
time-based charges. There is no need to dial up and
there are no dropout hassles. Always-on means that you
can access the Internet whenever you feel like it, without
having to go through a dial-up delay.
Savings
You will no longer have any dial-up call costs and you
do not need a separate modem line if you are a frequent
user. This creates significant direct savings to offset
the cost of ADSL. Of course there are also the time
savings that come with using our fast DSL service.
Internal Networking
Everyone in your office can have access to the Internet
without the need for additional telephone lines or modems.
External Networking
As the DSL service provides a "permanent"
connection to the Internet you can use it for "private"
data links with your Branches or supplier/ client communities
through setting up a virtual private network. Technology
is now available to make these links secure.
What do I need?
The minimum you need is your existing copper telephone
line and a PC. BusinessPhoneAustralia Telecom can supply you with a
DSL modem, and, if required, software to operate the
DSL modem and an Ethernet card for your PC. The Windows,
NT and Macintosh operating systems are supported by
the modem software (see also FAQ). Your other Internet
software will not only work, but work much better with
ADSL. You will still be able to use your telephone line
as before. We will provide filters to separate the ADSL
service from your telephone service.
In an office environment every user
on your LAN (local area network) can benefit from fast
DSL service without any additional software per user.
You may need a "router" (like a gateway) to
connect your LAN to our DSL service.
How does it work?
DSL connects to your PC using a (fast) Ethernet or USB
port. DSL operates on a standard copper telephone line
(not cable) and uses a special modem to take advantage
of the full bandwidth capability of your line. At the
local exchange end of your line (in selected local telephone
exchanges) we have installed equipment that connects
you to BusinessPhoneAustralia Internet. We are in the process of expanding
our coverage rapidly. For ADSL we cover many areas of
the capital cities. For HDSL we currently cover the
capital city CBDs and some surrounding areas. (See Coverage)
For telephone service your telephone
line is split at the local exchange. To provide clear
phone service at your premises a small filter is provided
between the phone socket and your phone. This way your
telephone service can operate as normal.
Broadband Pricing
and Plans
Broadband DSL enables any business to benefit from the
world of Internet and communications solutions with
no fuss, and at a fraction of the price.
BusinessPhoneAustralia offers a range of DSL technologies
suitable for your business' current and growing Internet
requirements. With most businesses connected to the
net either for e-mail, research, hosting or the use
of private networks, the cost of Internet connectivity
can be quite expensive.
With the use of BusinessPhoneAustralia' Broadband DSL
services, the traditional cost of Internet connections
can be significantly reduced while at the same time
increasing your office bandwidth.
We provide Internet connectivity speeds
ranging from 256 kbps up to 16 Mbps depending on your
business needs and technical capabilities. You may even
use multiple DSL services, depending on your router
configuration, to increase the connectivity speed provided.
The BizJet-Lite service is our most economical service,
but it does not provide a fixed (static) IP address
for server type purposes. BizJet ADSL and SHDSL provide
a static IP address which you may use to: |
