PowerServe Internet is a high performance Internet service designed to dynamically optimise your Internet service every time you connect. It delivers the high performance needed to support your mission-critical business processes and applications and it will outperform a direct connection to a Tier 1 provider, typically reducing the latency by 20% to 50% and reducing packet loss to zero.

Multiple tier 1 providers
Our PowerServe Internet solution uses multiple Internet Tier 1 providers for resiliency. A Tier 1 provider is a provider with its own global internet route that can provide you with a full internet routing table. Moreover, it has its own peering agreements in place so it can access all the routes available over the internet.

The two main advantages of using multiple Tier 1 providers are that firstly, it means we are not reliant on any single global network, so, in the highly unlikely event that one of our Tier 1 providers fails, we could still maintain an internet service to our customers; and secondly, it vastly increases the number of global routes available for our use – ensuring that we always have the best routes available. All of this means that our customers receive a multi-tiered, resilient and premium performance internet carrier class solution.
Route 1TM sampling algorithm
Matched with our Route 1 feature, the use of multiple Tier 1 providers ensures the best possible route across the Internet at any second of the day. Our Route 1TM intelligent IP management functionality monitors real time traffic delivered by our five Tier 1 global providers. When your users access the Internet they are automatically sent on the fastest route available, at that moment, for that destination, ensuring you benefit from the fastest connection speeds in the UK (our network boasts a New York to London return time of 67ms).
The bandwidth is available as a fixed amount with the option of flexible, pay-as-you-go, bandwidth on demand to handle your high usage periods.
PowerServe Internet provides:-
1:1 Access network contention guaranteed
Internet contention ratio refers to the potential usage of bandwidth when a connection is divided, or shared over multiple users. The more users consuming the subscribed bandwidth at the same time, the lower the data rate per user, and therefore the slower the download and upload times. During peak usage, a significant reduction in performance is inevitable over a contended connection.
Our PowerNGN Business Internet Service has a contention ratio of 1:1, or put simply, we guarantee that it's all yours and that you don't have to share. This means our customers receive reliable, secure and cost- effective bandwidth in the amounts for which they pay.
“We had previously been considering a 10Mb SDSL connection. But for only an extra £150 per month we got an extra 90Mbps as well as the peace of mind that comes with delivery using fibre. Fibre connectivity meant we could avoid many of the performance issues associated with copper solutions such as DSL”.
