WHAT WE DO | technology

Digital information is transformed into light pulses, and is then transported at ultra high speed through the fibre-optic cable.

The network equipment determines the bandwidth; the more light pulses per second, the more bandwidth. Optical fibre has essentially unlimited bandwidth.

At the speed
of light

In fibre-optic connectivity, digital information is transported by means of light. Special lighting equipment converts data into light signals that are transmitted at ultra high speed through the fibre-optic cable. The signals are received on the other side of the line where they are converted back. The number of light pulses per second determines the bandwidth: the higher the bandwidth, the faster the data transfer.

Optimum security

Our fibre-optic network is entirely underground, the connections only surface at the customers' premises. The network cables are safely enclosed in ducts. They consist of a large, almost inexhaustible number of optical fibres. A customer can make exclusive use of one or more fibres, thus affording him physically separate connections. These connections even have their own individual technical specifications, despite the fact that the route may be shared with another customer.
