Network company says its unlimited InterNet offer is a “critical departure” from standard business data plans…
VectorFibre is offering its business customers access to unlimited national and international data traffic through its new InterNet service.
The new business grade product operates over VectorFibre’s MetroEthernet service and allows direct internet access either through a customer’s existing ISP or by connecting to the network directly.
Vector’s chief executive Simon Mackenzie says for a flat monthly fee business customers can choose the bandwidth they require – up to 100 Mbit/s – with higher bandwidth available on request.
“This capacity can be provided without customers needing to give an estimate of their expected data demand for the month,” Mackenzie says.
“This is a critical departure from traditional telecommunications industry practice where customers need to provide advance notice to their ISPs of their expected data requirements for the month.
Chris Ichter, Microsoft New Zealand’s, director enterprise and partner group, says: “This kind of utility broadband access will support increased availability of innovative new services delivered directly from the fibre network and will be invaluable for businesses.”
