2. The purpose of this presentation is to outline
the different types of broadband services
available to me as a sole trader located in the
Skerries area, North County Dublin.
3. Broadband is high speed internet access
Broadband service provides higher-speed of
data transmission. It allows more content to
be carried through the transmission
“pipeline.”
Broadband is always on. It does not block
phone lines and there is no need to reconnect
to network after logging off.

technologies that provides digital data
transmission over the wires of a
local telephone network. This is the most

18. Taking into consideration all of the information
gathered on each of the different broadband
providers I feel the “Up to 12/1MB Business
Plus” plan from Eircom would be best suited for
my business needs.
19. I believe this is the best package to provide me
with sufficient internet access to run a successful
business from home.
Being a small business owner, reliable, high
speed internet access is crucial for my business to
succeed. Eircom is a name I know and trust and I
would feel comfortable signing up for their ADSL
broadband package.
Price is also a very important factor to consider
and this package offers me free installation and a
very manageable monthly fee of €65.
I also feel the download and upload speeds of 12
MBPS and 1 MBPS would be sufficient for my
business needs.
