Digiweb launch new broadband

DIGIWEB has announced the launch of Electric Broadband, a 1 Gigabit broadband service powered by SIRO in Drogheda.

Using SIRO’s 100% fibre optic broadband network, Digiweb will offer a number of packages for both residential and business customers in Drogheda, with speeds ranging from 150 Megabits per second (Mbps) to one Gigabit per second (Gbps.

SIRO, the open-access wholesale broadband provider, is building a 100% fibre-optic internet network in 50 towns across Ireland.

Commenting about the launch in Drogehda, Declan Campbell, Managing Director of Digiweb, said: “This is a different kind of internet and we are delighted to be offering our customers in Drogheda the choice. It will be great to be able to offer customers in these areas SIRO powered broadband packages of up to 1Gbps, enabling us to deliver the people of Drogheda one of the most powerful broadband services available in Ireland.’

They say Digiweb’s Electric Broadband will transform the internet experience of SMEs, remote workers and consumers, for example, a high definition film (4GB) takes one hour to download with a 10mbps connection - with Electric Broadband it will take 30 seconds.

“Our partnership with Digiweb illustrates how SIRO is driving competition in Ireland’s broadband marketplace, with Drogheda benefiting as a result,’ Sean Atkinson, Chief Executive of SIRO, added.
