Fixed-line Carrier
A fixed-line carrier is a telecommunications company that provides landline telephone and broadband internet services to customers. In most cases, these companies also offer TV services, but a few only offer phone and internet. Fixed-line carriers usually have their own network infrastructure, which allows them to offer better quality service than a mobile carrier or an ISP (internet service provider).
What Small and Midsize Businesses Need to Know About Fixed-line Carrier
Small businesses can benefit from using fixed-line carriers because they often offer lower voice and data plans rates than other providers. In addition, having a dedicated line gives a business the reliability and stability it needs to operate smoothly without interruptions. Fixed-line carriers also provide faster speeds than other types of providers, such as mobile phone companies or internet service providers (ISPs).
