Dark Fibre is becoming a service of choice for an increasingly large number or corporate organisations and the public sector. Dark Fibre services provide virtually unlimited bandwidth capability at a fixed price over the term of the contract. This means costs will stay the same as capacity requirements increase, permitting the customer to manage bandwidth growth while keeping link costs static.


Up until now, the majority of optical fibre networks have been built by carriers who control the total capacity of the fibre and provide a variety of managed services to a large number of customers. Aurora Telecom provides Dark Fibre network services specifically designed to meet the requirements of the growing corporate network. With dedicated point-to-point or resilient network connectivity, it securely connects multi-site enterprises within a metro area. In a business context this means that information can be shared between multiple office sites in an instant at a fraction of the cost of traditional carriers.

Our experienced team can assist and recommend the best bespoke solution for your requirements. With Dark Fibre in place the customer can build different types of networks from basic point-to-point Ethernet to Carrier Backbone DWDM networks.

Whether you are in the public sector looking to reduce your communications costs, or a large enterprise requiring a communications infrastructure to support your own business system, we have a portfolio of products that can be tailored to address your specific needs and deliver business success for you.

Some of the key benefits of the Aurora model are:

  • Bespoke, dedicated, private high speed fibre networks
  • Rapid installation at a lower cost than traditional methods
  • Fixed annual fees that remain constant regardless of bandwidth
  • Unlimited bandwidth, flexibility and scalability
  • Complete control over your own network connection
  • No limit on the type and number of services run over the network

The Fibre to the West »

Aurora Telecom is undertaking an ambitious project to roll-out an ultra high-speed fibre optic network linking Dublin to the West of Ireland. The project will see the installation of more than 330km of fibre-optic cable that will pass major regional locations including Galway, Athlone, Mullingar, Tullamore and Ennis. The fibre-optic route traverses directly cross county and benefits from the standards applied to safeguarding Bord Gáis high-pressure gas pipelines, such as regular aerial and foot patrols to ensure no outages through third party interference. Moreover, its specification, innovative construction methodologies and maintenance procedures are best-in-class, resulting in a highly reliable and secure network service.

The Fibre to the West project signifies a major development for Ireland. It makes an open-access fibre optic network available to both telecommunications carriers and corporate organisations to support high speed data, voice and video services. Critical infrastructure such as this holds a pivotal role in Ireland's development as driver of economic activity and foreign direct investment. It is recognised as being a key enabler to develop a Smart Economy, driving competitiveness and growth through supporting Next Generation Networks and digitally-based services.
