Bonded Internet

Bonded internet: every connection working together, all the time.

Combine fibre, microwave and 5G/LTE into a single pool of true, full-speed bandwidth. Not a backup line sitting idle, an always-on multiplier for your business internet.

What bonded internet actually means

Most businesses run a primary internet connection and a backup line that only kicks in when something fails, wasted bandwidth sitting idle every single day. Bonded internet takes two or more connections, fibre, microwave, or 5G/LTE, and combines them into a single pool of bandwidth using a bonding appliance or SD-WAN service. The result: you get the full, combined speed of every line, every day, not just during an outage.

  • Combine fibre internet, microwave and LTE into one bonded pool
  • Full paid-for bandwidth used every working day
  • Traffic automatically shifts between links if one degrades
  • No manual failover, no "switch to backup" phone call

Bonded vs failover

Bonded internet isn't the same as a backup line.

A failover setup keeps a second connection idle, waiting for the primary to fail. Bonded internet uses both, or all three, connections simultaneously, so your business gets more usable bandwidth on a normal Tuesday, not just resilience on a bad one.

Failover only

Backup line sits unused until the primary connection drops. Wasted capacity, most of the time.

Single connection

One point of failure. A fibre cut or power interruption takes the whole site offline.

Who needs it

Built for businesses that can't afford a dropped call or a stalled upload.

Video PBX & call centres

Voice and video quality that doesn't degrade when someone else is uploading.

Cloud-heavy teams

Large uploads to backup or cloud storage running alongside everyday browsing and calls.

Multi-branch retail

CCTV feeds, POS systems and staff internet, all running reliably on one bonded connection.

Sites off the fibre grid

Combine microwave internet and 5G/LTE where fibre alone can't yet reach.

How it's built

Two or three links, one seamless connection.

We assess which combination of fibre, microwave internet and business 5G/LTE makes sense for your site, install a bonding appliance or SD-WAN service, and monitor the combined link from our network operations centre, so bonding isn't a one-time setup you're left to manage alone.

  • Site assessment to choose the right link combination
  • Bonding appliance or SD-WAN configured and installed
  • 24/7 monitoring of every link in the bonded pool

Works with what you already have

Existing fibre or microwave links can often be bonded with a new line rather than replaced, keeping the transition simple and cost-effective.
