SOGEA Broadband
Business broadband without the phone line. One order, one bill, fully managed by Sequential Networks and ready for the analogue switch-off.
NO PHONE LINE NEEDED · ONE SIMPLE SERVICE · FREE MANAGED MIGRATION · FUTURE READY · UK SUPPORT
SOGEA delivers fast, reliable business broadband without needing a traditional phone line underneath it. You order one service and get one bill, instead of paying separately for broadband and line rental. We handle the migration from your existing connection, provision the router and monitor the line, so the switch is painless.
What is SOGEA?
SOGEA stands for Single Order Generic Ethernet Access. Traditional broadband rides on top of an analogue phone line that you pay line rental for, even if you never make a call on it. SOGEA removes that layer entirely: the same fast broadband, delivered on a single order with no phone line required.
It also matters for the future: the UK’s analogue phone network is being retired, and SOGEA does not depend on it. Your voice services move to hosted VoIP, which runs happily over the SOGEA connection.

Broadband is simple when someone owns it end to end. Here is what you get with ours:

- Fully managed migration: we move you from your existing broadband, provision the router and monitor the line.
- Future ready: built for the analogue phone network switch-off, with voice moving to hosted VoIP.
- UK support from the team that runs our own network and data centres.
- Room to grow: step up to Ethernet or a full leased line on the same relationship when you need more.

Frequently asked questions
What is SOGEA?
Single Order Generic Ethernet Access: business broadband delivered without a traditional phone line underneath it. One order, one bill.
Why is SOGEA usually cheaper?
Because it is one simple service instead of separate broadband and line rental, you stop paying for a phone line you may never use.
What about the analogue phone switch-off?
SOGEA is built for it. It does not depend on the retiring analogue network, and your voice services move to hosted VoIP over the same connection.
Can you handle the migration?
Yes. We migrate you from your existing broadband, provision and ship the router, and monitor the line once you are live.
Can I keep my phone numbers?
Yes. Numbers move to our hosted VoIP service, which runs over your SOGEA connection.
