Fiber Network

The Fiber Network by Cyta is the only island wide fiber optic network, which guarantees extremely fast speeds of up to 1Gbps. Its the fastest and most reliable network in Cyprus, that covers the current and future demands of businesses to operate productively in today’s competitive environment.

The Fiber Network by Cyta will gradually connect up to 180,000 premises and is expected to cover some 130,000 subscribers. It is one of the biggest investments in telecommunications ever undertaken in Cyprus and it will take the country forward into the new era of the digital society.

Optical fibers are very fine cables that use light for data transmission at much faster speeds than those possible with traditional copper cables. Via optical fibers, data travels close to the speed of light.

In today’s digital era, everything is changing: the way we learn, work, live and see the world and ourselves in it. Recognising the demands of the new digital era, Cyta decided to invest in the design and installation of the biggest and fastest Fiber Network in Cyprus. The Fiber Network lets people exploit the technologies of the future with new generation networks, thereby raising their standard of living and improving their business activities.

The applications that businesses use daily to communicate with their customers, employees and suppliers, such as teleconferencing, Office365 and high-resolution video and images, require real time and fast transfer of large volumes of data. A fast Internet connection can make the difference, improve and upgrade the entire experience thanks to the quality and reliability it provides.

Cloud Computing is another modern technological innovation for businesses. By using the Cloud, businesses can store their data and a large part of their software on a secure server operated and secured by a service provider. A fast fiber optic connection enables the applications needed by a business, such as e-mail, data backup, security software, etc. fast with no delays. This means that employees spend more of their time productively and less time waiting.

Our goal is to gradually reach as many areas of Cyprus as possible and to provide businesses with an integrated and upgraded communication experience.

On the Fiber Network, data is transmitted as light signals through small, flexible strands of glass, thus securing speed and reliability.

Optical fibers can thus provide superfast speeds of up to 1 Gbps. Such speeds are ideal for virtually any activity that uses the Internet, such as:  

• Downloading large files and video
• Live Streaming for videoconferencing and other business applications
• Simultaneous connection of multiple devices such as computers and mobile devices
• Reliability: The Fiber Network is extremely reliable. Various factors that can affect a connection and its speed such as interference from other electrical sources/cables, the weather, the distance from the Internet service provider’s network etc.– do not affect the light signals transmitted over the Fiber Network.

For Internet Business products, all the current speeds of 10/20/30/50 and 100Mbps, together with additional speeds of 200/400Mbps and 1Gbps.

For Internet Home products, all the current speeds of 5/10/20/30/50 and 80Μbps, together with an additional speed of 160Mbps.
