Bonded SDSL refers to the technique where several SDSL lines are physically 'bonded' together to create a single, much larger, pipe. SDSL stands for Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line, with the 'symmetric' inferring that the line provides the same speed in both directions.

Typical users of bonded SDSL include businesses and SMEs which require a faster internet connection, perhaps due to the need to exchange large files such as videos and graphics. Video conferencing is a popular modern media application which benefits greatly from the use of bonded SDSL – with increased video quality workers have less need to travel to meetings, thus saving the company time and money.

Bonded SDSL also comes into its own in rural areas where it can be difficult to achieve naturally high-speed internet. As many small and medium-sized enterprises are today choosing to locate in rural or semi-rural areas, often for ease of commuting and improved quality of life, the digital barriers have to be addressed – and the solution is often bonded SDSL.

Some businesses initially start off with one SDSL line, but soon appreciate that it is highly cost effective to upgrade to the bonded SDSL system in order to double and even treble upload and download speeds. The flexibility factor of bonded SDSL is also appealing – as the demands of the business grow and the communications requirements increase, the number of bonded SDSL lines can be adjusted.

Reliability is another big plus. In a competitive commercial arena, businesses need to ensure they can trade quickly and easily – therefore good, reliable access to the internet is crucial.

Traditionally, businesses seeking to make themselves more internet efficient would have to opt for costly a leased line, but the new bonded SDSL technology has created a perfect alternative and allowed companies to make huge savings without compromising on line quality.
