Five scenarios where Glasgow businesses choose dedicated fibre.
Leased lines are 3-10x more expensive than equivalent FTTP, take 30-90 days to install vs 7-14 for FTTP, and only make commercial sense for specific operational profiles. Honest assessment for Glasgow businesses:
- High-availability operations. Where downtime cost genuinely exceeds £500+/hour — professional services, regulated industries. SLA with financial credits is operationally and commercially valuable.
- Heavy upload requirements. Video conferencing teams, large file uploads to cloud, off-site backup. Symmetric bandwidth means uploads don't bottleneck.
- VoIP-heavy operations. 50+ concurrent calls with consistent quality requirements. Contended FTTP can introduce jitter at peak times; leased line removes that variability.
- Multi-site connectivity. Where multiple Glasgow sites need consistent bandwidth between them — often as MPLS or SD-WAN underlay.
- Contractual bandwidth guarantees. Regulated industries or specific customer contracts requiring dedicated capacity.
For typical Glasgow SMEs (5-50 staff, standard cloud apps, voice on a separate VoIP system), FTTP with 4G/5G failover usually delivers leased-line-like effective uptime at much lower cost. We'll tell you which fits your operation honestly.
How leased lines actually arrive at your building.
Strong central fibre coverage — openreach fttp widely available, cityfibre rollout extending the network in 2024-2025, virgin media business in inner areas. Different delivery methods have different cost, install timeline, and SLA profiles.
EAD (Ethernet Access Direct)
Pure fibre from your Glasgow premises to the Openreach core. Strongest SLA, best for Glasgow operations where uptime is genuinely critical. Bandwidth: 10Mbps to 10Gbps. Typical 30-60 day install in urban Glasgow, longer if civil engineering needed.
EoFTTC (Ethernet over Fibre To The Cabinet)
Fibre to the local cabinet, copper for last few hundred metres. Cheaper than EAD, still uncontended, slightly weaker SLA. Good middle option for Glasgow businesses where cost matters but contention does not.
Pure point-to-point fibre
Direct fibre from premises to provider point-of-presence, no shared infrastructure. Used for very high-bandwidth requirements (10Gbps+) common in Glasgow's financial and tech sectors.
EFM (Ethernet First Mile)
Copper-based, legacy product, declining availability. Generally avoided for new installs. Mentioning it for completeness — if your existing setup is EFM, modernising to EAD is usually the right move.

Light industrial, professional services, and IFSD (International Financial Services District). Modern building infrastructure.
East End (G31, G40)
Mixed light industrial and SME concentration. Coverage varies more than central Glasgow — site survey often valuable.
How we deliver leased lines in Glasgow.
We're Wolverhampton-headquartered (64 Chapel Ash WV3 0TT). For physical leased line install in Glasgow, the civil engineering and fibre work is delivered through Openreach or your chosen carrier's field engineering team — the same engineers who'd install for BT, Virgin, Colt, or any other provider.
What that means:
- Carrier-agnostic quoting. We quote across Openreach, Virgin, Colt and other carriers in Glasgow — recommending what genuinely fits your operation, not what makes us highest margin.
- Project management. We coordinate the install timeline with you, the carrier, and your building's landlord/facilities team if needed. No "we'll be in touch" open-ended commitments.
- Ongoing relationship. Single named UK engineer for your account. The carrier handles physical fibre faults via their SLA; we handle the service relationship around it.
- SLA enforcement. Carrier SLA terms are negotiated upfront and committed in your contract. Financial credits if SLA missed — chased on your behalf, not buried in support tickets.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a leased line cost in Glasgow?
Typical 2026 Glasgow leased line pricing: £300-500/month for 100Mbps symmetric EAD, £400-650 for 200Mbps, £600-1000 for 500Mbps, £800-1500 for 1Gbps. Higher bandwidth (10Gbps+) typically £2,000-5,000+/month. Glasgow install costs typically £500-3,000 for standard urban deployments. Complex civils (digging, fibre runs) add significantly. We quote across multiple carriers and pick best fit for your operation.
How long does leased line install take in Glasgow?
Typical Glasgow leased line install: 30-60 working days for urban locations with existing duct infrastructure. 60-120 days for sites needing new fibre runs. The bottleneck is civil engineering work (Openreach or alt-net scheduling) — not the provider. For interim connectivity during the install window, we deploy FTTP + 4G failover so your operation stays online.
What's the difference between EAD and EoFTTC in Glasgow?
EAD (Ethernet Access Direct) is pure fibre end-to-end — strongest SLA, highest cost. EoFTTC is fibre to the cabinet, copper for the last few hundred metres — cheaper, slightly weaker SLA, still uncontended. Both are valid choices for Glasgow businesses depending on cost/SLA priorities. We'll recommend honestly based on your operation.
Do I need a leased line in Glasgow or is FTTP enough?
For 95% of Glasgow SMEs: FTTP with 4G/5G failover delivers leased-line-like effective uptime at much lower cost. Leased lines genuinely earn their cost when: downtime cost exceeds £500+/hour, you need symmetric heavy-upload, you have 50+ concurrent VoIP calls with quality requirements, or contractual SLAs from your customers require dedicated bandwidth. We assess honestly — most Glasgow businesses don't actually need leased line.
Can leased lines support multi-site businesses in Glasgow?
Yes — leased lines are the standard underlay for multi-site connectivity. For 3+ Glasgow sites needing consistent bandwidth between them (often as MPLS or SD-WAN underlay), leased line at each site is the right choice. We coordinate the multi-site rollout, manage install timelines across sites, and configure inter-site routing.
What SLA do Glasgow leased lines come with?
Standard 99.95% uptime SLA with 4-hour fix-time for Glasgow leased lines, with financial credits if SLA missed. Pure EAD products typically come with the strongest SLA; EoFTTC slightly weaker but still business-grade. SLA terms are committed upfront in your contract — no surprise small print.
How does Telexico deliver leased lines in Glasgow?
We're Wolverhampton-headquartered. For Glasgow leased line install, physical fibre work is delivered by Openreach or your chosen carrier's field engineering team — same engineers who install for BT, Virgin, Colt. We quote across carriers (vendor-agnostic), project-manage the install, enforce SLA terms, and provide ongoing support via single named UK engineer.
