Bytel owned Fibre Backbone Network

There has been significant time and money invested in creating and installing our network, the Northern Ireland Saturn Ring (NISR),with over 400km of fibre linking Northern Ireland's capital city Belfast, with towns and rural areas around the whole of the province, including points of presence in Portadown, Derry, Omagh and Armagh. Bytel's 'Open Access' fibre ring is at the heart of the company's growth within the NI telecoms market, with the goal of bringing high capacity network connectivity throughout the province.
This link extends into the Republic of Ireland, and will provide Bytel with the capability to offer the highest quality for local, national and international access. In today's market, this infrastructure would cost in the region of £20m to put in place. (Map of our network, see below)

Connections to the Bytel Network can be arranged either directly via Private Circuit between the customer's LAN and a Bytel POP or via Broadband ADSL or SDSL.
