Cardiff has quietly undergone a major digital transformation. Across the city, a new generation of full fibre broadband is being rolled out through the Elevate network, delivering faster speeds, greater reliability and enterprise-grade performance for local businesses.

Yet many organisations still don’t realise what’s available to them, how it was funded, or how to access it properly.

This is Cardiff’s best kept secret, and it’s reshaping how businesses connect, collaborate and grow.

A £7 Million Investment in Cardiff’s Digital Future

The Welsh Government and Cardiff Council have invested £7 million into the Elevate full fibre network, building a high-capacity digital infrastructure designed specifically to support local businesses.

This isn’t a standard commercial rollout.

The Elevate network was created to:

Improve digital connectivity across Cardiff
Attract inward investment
Support economic growth
Future-proof the city’s business community

As an Elevate Wholesale Founding Partner, Blend Telecom can deliver this state-of-the-art connectivity directly to businesses across Cardiff.

That means faster internet speeds, improved reliability and better value, all built on infrastructure designed exclusively for the city.

A New Fibre Network Built for Business

Unlike traditional copper-based broadband, full fibre (FTTP) connects your premises directly to fibre optic cables end-to-end.

The result?

Symmetrical speeds up to 1Gbps and beyond
Faster uploads and downloads
Clearer VoIP calls
Seamless video conferencing
No slowdowns during peak hours
Significantly improved resilience

The Elevate full fibre network in Cardiff supports everything from cloud platforms and hosted phone systems to data-heavy applications and hybrid working environments.

For many businesses, this level of connectivity was previously only available in major commercial hubs. Now, it’s available right here in Cardiff.

How Full Fibre Broadband Works in Practice

Full fibre broadband removes the limitations of ageing copper infrastructure entirely.

This delivers:

Consistent speeds, even at busy times
Improved reliability with fewer faults and outages
Low latency for voice, video and real-time applications
Scalability as your business grows

If your organisation relies on cloud services, VoIP phone systems, remote teams or large data transfers, fibre broadband isn’t just an upgrade, it’s essential infrastructure.

Why Choosing the Right Partner Matters

While the Elevate fibre infrastructure is already in the ground, how you access it makes all the difference.

At Blend Telecom, we work across multiple fibre networks in Cardiff and South Wales, including the Elevate full fibre network, which means we’re not tied to a single product or supplier.

Instead, we focus on:

Finding the right broadband solution for your location
Assessing usage, resilience and growth plans
Designing a solution that works in the real world

Whether that’s:

Symmetrical FTTP via Elevate
Enterprise broadband with SLA backing
A dedicated leased line
Or a resilient setup with backup connectivity

We build connectivity around your business, not the other way around.

Broadband That Fits Around Your Business

Every organisation uses connectivity differently. A professional services firm may prioritise cloud access and call quality. A logistics or manufacturing business may require guaranteed uptime and resilience. Multi-site businesses may need scalable, centrally managed solutions.

Our approach is simple:

We take time to understand how your business operates
We recommend the most suitable full fibre or leased line options
We manage installation and provisioning
We provide ongoing, local support

With one bill, one point of contact and no unnecessary complexity, you stay connected without the usual telecoms frustration.

Supporting the Future of Work in Cardiff

Hybrid working, cloud platforms and digital collaboration are now part of everyday business life.

The Welsh Government-backed Elevate fibre network provides the infrastructure. Blend Telecom ensures your business makes the most of it.

By combining:

Business broadband
VoIP phone systems
Mobile connectivity
Resilient network design

We help Cardiff businesses build communications systems that are reliable today, and ready for tomorrow.
