Don’t be kept in the dark about dark fibre network connection. With dark fibre, you can have full control over your network and gain speedy connectivity, secure connections, and almost limitless scalability. 

What is dark fibre? 

Dark fibre refers to unused fibre optic cables that aren’t “lit” by network providers. You can buy or lease these to create a private network for your business. You can have point-to-point connections or use Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM). DWDM helps you maximise the number of channels on each fibre thread.   

If you want unlimited control and creativity to design a bespoke fibre network, then dark fibre is a great option for you. No more purchasing a service like Ethernet or Optical Wavelengths – choose whichever services you’d like and manage your network entirely in-house. You can source the right networking equipment, protocols, and specifications to suit your business needs.

Benefits of dark fibre 

As your business grows – so can your bandwidth and data transmission. You can upgrade and improve dark fibre infrastructure as your network needs grow. This helps you get the most from your network.   

No need to compete with other users or businesses for bandwidth. Your dark fibre network is exclusive to you, meaning high-speed connections and ultimate privacy. No other providers or users can access the network – making it ideal for businesses that handle sensitive data. For increased security, you can also implement data encryption. 

Cut the middleman. If any faults occur with your network, you can start fixing them immediately without needing to contact or troubleshoot with network providers. 

Fibre cables can carry a lot of data quickly, and they use less power than copper cables. This makes them a good choice for anyone who needs to transfer data fast.   

If you have the in-house IT resources to manage a private network, dark fibre is an excellent option with many benefits. To learn more about the connectivity options that dbfb offer, call 01604 673320 or email discover@dbfb.co.uk.
