With the advancement in technology, things have changed greatly over the years. The means of communication have become very fast and efficient. Now you do not have to make a call and wait for it to get through to talk to your loved ones. You do not have to wait for days to receive an answer of your query through a letter. The world has become very fast paced and so has the means of communication rather connection.

This has all been possible due to the technology. Internet has made things a lot easier. Things that used to take days can be done in a time of few minutes without affecting the flow of work. The whole world is connected through the internet and you can talk to the person sitting at the other end of the world. The barriers between communications have been removed to a large extent. Similarly, businesses have also gone global, now doing business internationally have become so easy that no one would ever have thought of it before.

All this electronic connectivity has become more fast and quick with the advent of broadband technology. Broadband has become very popular and has increased the speed of internet, thus saving more time of the people. Now, you do not have to wait a long time for the page to load. It is done in a fraction of a second.

Broadband has become very common and its popularity is increasing. It is providing service to the home as well as business users. They are both benefiting from it. The needs of the home users are a lot different from the needs of a business user; therefore, there are different packages for both of these users.

The retail market of broadband is growing considerably every day. More and more home users and businesses are switching to broadband to increase the efficiency. Most of us are not aware of the wholesale broadband, because we are the end user of the product, and we look only into the retail prices and packages of broadband. In the UK, the retail market of broadband is comparatively more competitive than the wholesale broadband market.

There are very few wholesale broadband providers in the UK, who are using the telephony communication of BT. BT is so far the only one in its area to be providing access to its network and main cable operators. The wholesale broadband is for those people who do not want to invest in the networking infrastructure, which has to be very wide and extensive in order to provide branded internet product to the consumers.

There are also cost advantages in the wholesale broadband. You have a very low operating cost, as you do not have to build and maintain a network infrastructure. Similarly, as you have access to the tested and reliable technology; therefore, there are no sunken technology costs. Since you are not building your own network infrastructure, you do not have to invest a large capital.
