More bandwidth, less hassle: 100Gb Data Centre Connect will make your customers’ lives easier - fast

• Earlier data centre ports offered a maximum capacity of 10Gbps. With 100Gb Data Centre Connect, companies enjoy 10 times the connectivity - and the convenience of managing a single circuit.

• Without aggregating and managing multiple customer connections, BT Wholesale customers can grow revenues and simplify deployment.

London, UK – 04 August 2022 – BT Wholesale’s new 100Gb Data Centre Connect (DCC) helps customers meet demands for higher, more flexible bandwidth, using a single 100Gbps data centre port.

Customers no longer need to purchase multiple ports, offering a maximum capacity of 10Gbps and requiring aggregation and management of corresponding circuits.

100Gb Data Centre Connect meets customers’ growing data demands through more cost effective and easier to manage data centre networking, which enhances user experience, revenue generation, and business growth.

100Gb Data Centre Connect is currently available through the Telehouse North and Telehouse North Two data centres - and BT Wholesale is rapidly rolling out this higher bandwidth service across the country.

Gavin Jones, Channel Sales Director at BT Wholesale, said “We’re committed to working with our customers to make it easier for them to do business. 100Gb Data Centre Connect supports our customers’ clients who are increasingly demanding greater connectivity, driven largely by digital transformation strategies, cloud migration, and the evolution of data centres, AI and IoT technologies.”

Almost two-thirds (63%) of industry experts participating in Omdia’s latest Wholesale Customer Survey (1) said they believed greater connectivity would be the highest-ranking growth area in the next two years, providing the best revenue contribution to the wholesale communications market. 43% believed datacentre, cloud, and edge, will also drive significant growth.

Jones continued: “100Gb Data Centre Connect isn’t the only way we’re empowering partners to deliver high bandwidth services. We currently have multiple offers in place, including better than half price Ethernet, and up to 45% off Direct Internet Access (DIA) - providing our customers with greater flexibility, bigger revenues, and the opportunity to generate higher ROI.

We also continue to invest in our Ethernet services. Our network reliability is already at 99.997%, but we’re working hard to get that to five 9s. And, with an average deployment time of three working days, customers can get their clients up and running on the UK’s most reliable and extensive fixed network quickly – generating revenue faster.”
