All-IP broadband over fibre and copper
SoGEA Business Broadband
A broadband-only replacement for traditional FTTC orders, using fibre to the cabinet and copper for the final section without requiring a separate PSTN phone-line product.
Business broadband · Managed by SCG Solutions
- Broadband without a separate analogue phone line
- VDSL profiles up to 80Mbps down and 20Mbps up
- Wide availability where full fibre has not reached the premises
We'll confirm the address-level availability, estimated performance, installation requirements, service commitments and current commercial terms.
Availability and specification confirmed at quote. Information reviewed by SCG Solutions on .
Technical profile
The profile below explains the role of the technology. The exact carrier product, bandwidth and contractual commitment are confirmed after an address and requirements check.
- Access technology
- Single Order Generic Ethernet Access using fibre to the street cabinet and copper from cabinet to premises
- Bandwidth profile
- Asymmetric VDSL profiles up to 80Mbps download and 20Mbps upload; the estimate depends on the copper line length and quality
- Service level
- Shared broadband access with support and repair options selected around the business requirement
- Resilience
- Can be paired with 4G/5G or another fixed connection; do not treat two services sharing the same copper route as diverse
- Installation
- Usually reuses the existing copper pair and master socket, subject to line checks and any engineer work identified at order
- Network design
- An all-IP data service: any voice, alarm, lift or payment service formerly using the analogue line must be assessed separately
Technology reference: BT Wholesale SoGEA information ↗. SCG Solutions may use another suitable UK carrier or platform where it provides a better fit.
Workload and risk
Where this connection fits
- Smaller sites with moderate usage where FTTP is unavailable and a leased line would be disproportionate
- Premises moving away from PSTN-linked broadband while retaining the existing cabinet-to-building copper path
A useful proposal needs detail
What shapes the quote
- 1Service address, current line details and the pre-order speed estimate
- 2Every device still relying on an analogue socket, including alarms, lifts and payment terminals
- 3Router, IP addressing, support level and whether the site needs automatic failover

Deployment and resilience planning
The circuit is only one part of a working service. SCG Solutions coordinates the availability check, carrier order, site access, router and security configuration, testing, monitoring and handover.
Network configuration
Prepare addressing, firewall, traffic policy, monitoring and the handoff into the existing LAN and Wi-Fi.
Failover test
Prove what moves to the secondary path, how long recovery takes and how traffic returns to normal.
Ongoing ownership
Give the business one support route across the managed circuit and the equipment around it.
Build the wider service around managed business Wi-Fi, network cabling, cyber security and business continuity.
