Dedicated Internet Access (DIA)
Uncontended bandwidth, guaranteed SLAs, and price in seconds – not weeks.
Unlike shared broadband, DIA is uncontended. The bandwidth is yours and yours alone, symmetrical up and down, with guaranteed performance and enterprise-grade SLAs.
But the hard part has never been the circuit. It's getting it: chasing ISPs, comparing apples to oranges, and waiting weeks for a price. Multiply this across all your sites.
With GNX, that's now gone. Browse, compare, and source DIA from thousands of local providers in just a few clicks. Then manage all your global services from one platform, one contract, and one monthly invoice. That's straightforward.

Goodbye RFPs. Source DIA the easy way.
DIA for the global enterprise
Dedicated internet access is ideal for businesses with global operations (HQ, data centers, critical sites, and branches) that need guaranteed, business-critical connectivity for cloud, VoIP/UC, and applications where uptime and performance matter.
- Guaranteed bandwidth – the bandwidth you pay for is the bandwidth you get.
- Symmetrical speeds – same speeds up and down, dedicated IP addresses, full routing control.
- Reliable, as it should be – uptime, throughput, latency and time-to-repair are all committed in the SLA.
- Flexes to your needs – new sites or more bandwidth? DIA can scale as business demands evolve.
- Optimized for cloud applications – whether it's voice, video, or trading platforms, DIA offers predictable performance for your cloud business apps.
DIA is often chosen as the primary underlay for SD-WAN/SASE and the anchor circuit for your MPLS migration.
Why GNX for your Dedicated Internet Access
MPLS: Should I stay or should I go
Companies are moving away from MPLS and turning to DIA for their business connectivity. Does that mean you should do it too?

FAQ about GNX Dedicated Internet Access
What is Dedicated Internet Access (DIA)?
An uncontended, symmetrical internet connection where the bandwidth is reserved entirely for you, with guaranteed performance and enterprise-grade SLAs. It's the most reliable, consistent way for a business to reach the cloud and the internet.
How is DIA different from business broadband?
Broadband is shared. This means you contend for bandwidth with other users, and speeds can dip at busy times. DIA is dedicated and uncontended: the capacity is yours, up and down, backed by SLAs. Broadband is great for branches and backup; DIA is for sites that can't tolerate a slow lane.
Is DIA a replacement for MPLS?
For most workloads, yes. DIA paired with SD-WAN can match MPLS on real-world performance for cloud, SaaS and collaboration traffic at a lower cost. MPLS still earns its place for regulated traffic, latency-critical real-time applications and legacy systems that assume a private path. Alternatively, a combination of DIA and private point-to-points can also meet those needs. Most enterprises run a hybrid rather than cutting over completely.
What SLAs come with GNX DIA?
DIA services come with availability guarantees plus committed targets for latency, jitter, packet loss, and fault resolution (MTTR), backed by proactive monitoring and 24/7 support. Exact figures depend on the ISP and circuit; we'll confirm them on your quote.
How fast can I get a DIA quote
Seconds. As a customer, you'll get full access to our carrier-neutral platform, GNX+. There, you'll enter your address, pick your speed and term, and compare live pricing from competing ISPs. No more RFP, no waiting weeks for a number. Try it out.
Can DIA handle latency-sensitive applications?
Often, yes. DIA runs private to the ISP and then over the public internet, which adds some variability. Modern SD-WAN and middle-mile optimization reduce that by steering traffic dynamically across paths (read our blog on deterministic peering and optimizing traffic). For the most demanding real-time workloads, private point-to-point ethernet is worth comparing alongside MPLS.
Can GNX deliver diverse or redundant DIA?
Yes. Our carrier- and technology-neutral approach means we can meet your diversity needs (ISP diversity or full-path redundancy), and you can select your preferred diversity type right in the GNX+ search. Read more about diversity here.
Where can GNX deliver DIA?
In 190+ countries, sourced from 3,000+ local and regional ISPs. That includes tricky markets. We regularly help customers connect sites in China and across the Middle East, in compliance and on time.
