If you are moving your business to a new location, you know how much work this entails. From getting all the office equipment to getting your computer network up and running, this can all be stressful. One thing you must consider is getting your internet set up. One type you can choose is high-speed fiber internet services. Below is more information about this, as well as the benefits of choosing fiber optics and how it will be installed.
Choosing High-Speed Fiber Internet Services
When it comes to the internet, look for a company that offers high-speed fiber internet services for businesses. A company that works with businesses will know more about what you need.
Fiber optics offers your company many benefits. For example, fiber-optic cabling gives you fast internet speeds, which is important for your business. You will also have fast symmetric speed (upload and download speeds) than other types of internet connections. This is because data is sent much faster when using fiber-optic cabling.
Fiber optics also makes your computer network much more secure. This is because wireless internet can easily be compromised. Fiber-optic cabling does not radiate any type of signal, which makes it almost impossible for someone to hack into your network.
Fiber-optic cabling is also more reliable so you will have a less chance of losing your company's internet connection. This is because fiber-optic cables are made of a special type of glass, which is much more reliable when compared to copper which is used with other types of internet connections.
Installing Your Internet Service
Once you decide that you want high-speed fiber internet, contact an internet service provider (ISP) in your area. The first thing they will do is determine if fiber optics is available in your area. Once they determine that your location does have this, they will schedule an appointment for the installation.
If your business already has established fiber-optic cabling connections, the setup will not take a long time. If there is no fiber-optic cabling, however, the installation will take much longer as the ISP will have to install the cabling.
The ISP will give you an option of installing the fiber-optic lines underground, or they can connect the lines to telephone poles that are close to your business. If you choose underground, then it will take longer as the company will have to dig.
Once the technician is finished installing the fiber-optic lines, they will then install your internet connections inside your business through a modem. They will have to install Ethernet lines, which are generally through the walls. They will set up your wireless connection and network also. Before they leave, the technician will test everything to ensure your internet is working well.
The ISP that you choose can give you much more information about this.
