About sogea business broadband
SOGEA delivers FTTC speeds over copper without bundling a phone line you no longer need. With ISDN switch-off in 2027, most businesses are moving to cloud telephony - and SOGEA gives them a broadband product designed around that.
Telappliant provides SOGEA across the UK with business fault handling, static IP and prioritisation for VoIP. It is usually the right answer where FTTP is not yet available but the business has already cut over to SIP or cloud PBX.
Speeds up to 80 Mbps down and 20 Mbps up depend on your line. Where higher upload is needed, compare the available FTTP upload speed or ask about symmetric FibreLight. We can also discuss a backup link.
Installation is project-managed end to end. Where the line is already in your building, the cut-over is rapid. Where new copper is needed, we run the Openreach order and configure the router for collection.
SOGEA is monitored from our NOC with proactive fault management and carrier escalation. Service credits and committed restore times apply to Ethernet services, not SoGEA or FTTP.
