Shetland Broadband - Wireless Internet (SDL).

Wireless Internet

Shetland Broadband is developing a wireless SDL internet service which at the moment offers coverage to areas of Lerwick, Scalloway and Gulberwick. The main advantage of this SDL system is that it is comparable with the new SDSL service which is currently limited to a few exchanges in the UK. SDL offers data transfer at the full subscribed rate in both directions unlike ADSL. Also larger bandwidth and lower contention ratio services are available than with ADSL. These services are more economical than the leased line alternative.

Enquiries: If you require further information on, or wish to subscribe to this service please call us on [01595] 696297 or use the "coverage enquiry form" link below.

8. Contention Ratio: Users of internet connections normally have to share bandwidth with other users. Basic ADSL services in the UK have a contention ratio of 50:1 with the more expensive or business packages having 20:1. This means that using a 50:1 contended service you can be sharing the allocated bandwidth with up to 49 other users at the same time. Shetland Broadband's wireless service offers contention ratios of 50:1, 10:1, 5:1 and 1:1 (exclusive use).
