Home / Business Internet / Dark Fibre
Your own fibre.
Your own rules.
When shared infrastructure is not good enough, we build you a private path. Point-to-point Enterprise Ethernet with guaranteed capacity, or unlit dark fibre you light and control yourself.

Leased to your business alone.
Power house connectivity
Sustained multi-gigabit, uncontended.
Control & scalability
Your optics, your protocol, your call.
Built for how business
actually uses the internet.

Because we lease you the strand rather than a speed tier, the service bends around your network instead of the other way round. Four things change the day you own the path.
Design a solution built around you
Develop the best design to suit you and your business needs, rather than fitting into a retail product.
Upgrade without extra carrier costs
Rapidly increase capacity as your business requirements and technology evolve, with no additional carrier charges.
Expand and diversify your network
Extend your existing network, create lateral routes, connect metro and rural regions together, and improve network diversity.
Transfer data securely
The fibre is not shared with other customers, so what travels on it stays entirely inside your business.
How it works.
The difference is what sits in the middle. A managed service hands your traffic to a carrier switch at each end and carries it across shared equipment. Dark fibre has none of that in the path.
Enterprise Ethernet or Dark Fibre?
Both give you a private path. The difference is how much of it you want to run yourself.
Consideration | Enterprise Ethernet | Dark Fibre |
|---|---|---|
What you receive | A managed layer 2 service at a set speed | |
Who lights the fibre | Axecom — fully managed | |
Capacity ceiling | 10Mbps to 10Gbps, sized to order | |
Equipment required | We supply and manage the NTU | Your own optical equipment |
In-house expertise needed | None — we run it | A network team, or ours on retainer |
Monitoring and faults | Monitored and supported by Axecom | You monitor the light; we own the strand |
Typical term | 24 to 36 months | 36 to 60 months |
Not sure which one you need?
Most organisations start with Enterprise Ethernet and move to dark fibre only when their capacity growth makes owning the strand cheaper than buying the bandwidth. We will tell you honestly where that line sits for you.
What you actually get out of it.
Seven things change when the fibre between your sites belongs to you and nobody else.
High performance fibre connectivity
Single-mode optical fibre engineered for sustained throughput, not headline burst speeds.
Enhanced network performance
No contention, no shared queues and no carrier equipment adding delay in the middle of the path.
Network security & control
Traffic never touches shared infrastructure, and the policy running on the link is entirely yours.
Competitive contract terms
Terms scoped against the actual build rather than a one-size-fits-all retail agreement.
A secure fibre network exclusive to your business
The strands are leased to you alone. Nobody else is lit on them, ever.
Dedicated capacity
Capacity is set by your optics, so it is there whether you use it today or grow into it next year.
Cost effective with a flat monthly rate
One predictable monthly charge, with no usage-based billing or excess-data line items on top.
