Managed Ethernet and multi-site networks for UK businesses

Connect your locations. Support your people. Keep your business working.

When your business operates across several locations, your network needs to bring everything together. Your people need dependable access to shared systems, cloud applications and the information they use every day.

Beaming helps you connect and manage your business locations, combining connectivity, monitoring and support with security and resilience appropriate to your requirements. We work with your IT team to understand your existing network, plan improvements and support the services as your business changes.

A network that supports the way your business works

Your head office, factories, warehouses and branch locations may have different connectivity needs. Some depend on constant access to central systems. Others need substantial upload capacity, controlled access to equipment or room to grow.
Managing these connections becomes harder when different suppliers, contracts and support arrangements sit behind each location.
Beaming brings the network requirements together. We help you assess what each site needs and agree a design that supports the business as a whole.

Bring your locations together

Connect people and systems across your business, with appropriate capacity for the applications and data moving between locations.

Reduce the burden on your IT team

Work with networking specialists who can manage agreed connectivity and infrastructure tasks, giving your team more time for other priorities.

Plan for disruption

Identify where an outage would have the greatest impact and consider backup connections, alternative routes and equipment resilience.

Make changes with confidence

Plan connectivity for new premises, additional sites and changing capacity requirements with people who understand your network

The right connection for each location

A busy production site may have different requirements from a small branch office. We consider the applications, traffic, operational needs and consequences of an outage at each location before recommending connectivity.

Ethernet fibre leased lines

Dedicated, symmetrical bandwidth can support locations that need consistent performance, substantial data transfers or dependable access to business applications.

Leased lines can provide internet access or connect specified locations, depending on the service and network design.

Private connectivity between sites

A private network can connect business locations and shared systems without sending that traffic over the public internet.
We can discuss how your sites should communicate, where internet access is needed and which security controls are appropriate.

Backup connections

Backup connectivity can help maintain access to important systems when a primary connection fails.
The right arrangement depends on the capacity you need during an outage, the risks you want to address and how traffic should move between connections. We will discuss these requirements as part of the design.

Example multi-site private network connecting head office, a factory and a branch to shared systems and internet access through a managed firewall, with a factory backup connection.

Moving from your existing network

Changing your network needs careful planning, particularly when business systems must remain available throughout the transition.
We work with your team to understand the dependencies and agree how the change should be managed.

1. Understand what you have

Review your sites, connections, applications and existing arrangements. Identify systems that depend on particular IP addresses, routing or remote access configurations.

4. Prepare for changeover

Agree appropriate testing, the changeover sequence and contingency arrangements. Where suitable and available, overlapping services can provide time to test before an existing connection is ceased.

2. Agree the design and responsibilities

Establish what the new network needs to deliver, which services Beaming will manage and how we will work with your IT team or support provider.

5. Move into ongoing support

Make sure your team knows how to contact us, report a problem and request changes to the services we manage.

3. Coordinate installation and configuration

Plan connection delivery, equipment configuration and site access around the project requirements and confirmed installation dates.
