Annex M ADSL
When your business demands high speed internet connectivity, that means both high upload speed as well as high download speed. Annex M ADSL gives a maximum upload speed of 2.5 Mbps meaning that access to hosted applications and cloud computing becomes a realistic proposition.

While the download speed of ADSL Annex M is sacrificed slightly compared to the equivalent Annex A (normal ADSL), the benefits of the higher upload speeds are huge. Our chart on the right shows the different upload speeds that various flavours of DSL can offer, and illustrates that Annex M is DOUBLE the speed of the next fastest product! The fastest possible download speed of Annex M is 20 Mbps which is only just shy of the 24Mbps achievable by Annex A.
Gconnect can deliver Annex M products over BT's 21st Century Network (21CN) or over O2's network giving redundant options for customers with more mission critical requirements. Annex M products can also be incorporated into our MPLS-VPN (PWAN) solutions, both as single connections or as part of redundant bundles.
