ielo democratizes very high-speed connectivity for businesses with a new FTTO portfolio

As the commercial shutdown of France’s legacy copper network continues, businesses across the country are being required to reassess their connectivity strategy to ensure the continuity of their digital operations. While many have already begun migrating to fibre, a significant number still remain hesitant due to a lack of information, eligibility constraints, or economic considerations.

Against this backdrop, ielo has decided to enhance its FTTO portfolio to facilitate and accelerate business digital transformation through a high-quality fibre offering that is accessible to all organisations.

Unlike traditional fibre networks designed for the residential market and built on shared infrastructures (FTTH), ielo has invested in designing and deploying its own fibre network based on a Dedicated Optical Local Loop (BLOD) architecture, built exclusively for businesses and public sector organisations.

As a result, ielo’s FTTO portfolio relies on an infrastructure that is fully controlled end-to-end and now consists of two complementary offerings:

• FTTO, ielo’s flagship dedicated fibre service
• FTTO BURST, its new flexible variant designed to address a broader range of market requirements

Together, these solutions enable ielo to meet virtually every professional connectivity need.

FTTO: Guaranteed Performance for Business-Critical Connectivity

The FTTO offering is designed for organisations of all sizes that require guaranteed bandwidth and the highest levels of service.

Key features include:

• Symmetrical bandwidth from 5 Mbps to 10 Gbps
• 100% guaranteed throughput
• 4-hour Service Restoration Guarantee (SLA) included
• Multiple resilience and redundancy options
• Dedicated fibre infrastructure designed for business use

FTTO BURST: Flexibility Without Compromising Quality

FTTO BURST builds on the core strengths of FTTO while providing the flexibility businesses need to combine performance with attractive pricing.

The service delivers:

• Guaranteed bandwidth with the ability to burst above the committed rate during traffic peaks
• Multiple Service Restoration Guarantee (SLA) options
• Pricing tailored to a wider range of business requirements

The offer is available in two configurations:

• 10 Mbps guaranteed, burstable up to 100 Mbps
• 100 Mbps guaranteed, burstable up to 1 Gbps

FTTO BURST naturally complements the wider ielo FTTO portfolio, with customers able to migrate from FTTO BURST to a full FTTO service at any time as their requirements evolve.

Supporting the Transition from Copper to Fibre

FTTO BURST is particularly well suited to organisations that are still connected through legacy copper infrastructure and are looking for a high-quality fibre solution that remains budget-friendly.

Positioned between traditional FTTH/FTTE offerings and premium FTTO services, it provides an attractive balance between performance, service quality, and cost.

Built on an infrastructure entirely designed, deployed, and operated by ielo, FTTO BURST represents a high-quality alternative to conventional FTTH and FTTE services available on the market.

Through this expanded portfolio, ielo aims to provide operator partners with one of the industry’s most comprehensive FTTO ranges, enabling them to address every business profile and connectivity requirement.
