Cogent Dedicated Internet Access

Unleash the potential of the Internet

Dedicated Connections

A port on the Cogent network is reserved just for you to ensure that you always get a dedicated symmetrical connection. Traditional telco and cable business Internet services are oversubscribed on the basis that not everyone uses their full bandwidth at the same time. Cogent’s network is engineered so that all of your bandwidth is available all of the time, both for download and upload.

Optical Ethernet

  • Fiber-based Ethernet has largely replaced legacy data transmission systems in the world’s communication networks. Cogent was among the first to commercially extend Ethernet over optical fiber directly to business end users. We offer FastE, GigE and 10GigE speeds to corporate customers in both On-Net and Off-Net locations. IPv6 is available upon request.

Reliable Service

  • Cogent’s network is Layer 3 protected and built in a series of rings. In the event of a fiber cut, data is rerouted away from the cut, reaching you from the other direction and keeping you connected. They proactively monitor your service from their Network Operations Centers and answer support calls quickly, averaging fewer than 25 seconds. Local support teams and online account management are available 24x7x365. They guarantee SLA for outstanding performance and reliability.
