BT Wholesale

BT Wholesale’s industry-leading BT 21CN network is an important connectivity option within our hybrid managed network services. 

BT Wholesale helps us to deliver cost-effective services, because Ethernet WANs can be materially cheaper than traditional mpls networks.  BT Wholesale offers extensive coverage with multiple connectivity options: from Next-Generation Fibre (GEA), Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM), and dedicated fibre from bandwidths of 10Mbit/s to 10Gbit.  With BT Wholesale we can offer fast circuit delivery and fast change control - eg sometimes in as little as 30 minutes to flex bandwidth on circuits.

We've worked hard to create a complete digital supply chain, in which we integrate with supplier systems for pricing, ordering, support and billing. With BT Wholesale as part of this digital supply chain, we can offer clients a more agile Ethernet service and deliver it to them faster and cheaper with fewer errors.
