Cloud computing and communications company, Qubic, has launched a new fibre-to-the-cabinet service, Vitesse, providing a direct connection to the datacentre. Qubic delivers connectivity over a wires only, configurable service. This ensures that traffic to the hosted servers it provides is carried on an entirely private line, without connecting to the Internet.

Chris Papa, managing director says they have created something quite different. “Vitesse Fibre Private lets you use superfast technology to build your own private network, eradicating long standing issues of slower, contended broadband. A company could have an office in the South East and in the North West, both in areas with terrible internet access, but they will both be provided high-speed access to our datacentre, enabling the sharing of information and internet access at super-high speed.

“It is not just geography and connectivity issues we are able to provide a solution to, we will also dramatically increase security. Vitesse Fibre is particularly appropriate for organisations such as financial that need to communicate sensitive information. Because traffic over Vitesse Private Fibre uses a static IP address and does not cross over public internet, customer information is safe from interception, hacking or denial of service attacks.

“Although direct connections have previously been available via Ethernet, this has been costly making hosted services unaffordable to most businesses. This solution is dramatically more cost effective, and provides a faster, cleaner, quicker, more reliable connection, once again allowing us to help with the progression of our customers rather than be a cost centre.”
