Textile manufacturers in rural areas are upgrading their internet connections to leased lines for faster speeds and increased security. Those with ERP software found leased circuits met their requirements.

**Reason 1 - Faster speeds**

Copper broadband is limited to 24Mb/s, fibre broadband offers up to 80Mb/s and Ethernet circuits offer up to 100Gb/s. The more manufacturers use their internet connection the more important speed becomes. 

**Reason 2 - Cost reduction**

The cost of leased lines has reduced in recent years due to increased competition in the market and the introduction of lower cost technologies such as fibre Ethernet. In addition many SMEs have taken advantage of the government's BDUK voucher scheme which is funding internet upgrades in many UK cities.

**Reason 3 - Increased security**

Ethernet circuits offer dedicated bandwidth which means that speed is guaranteed and not shared by other users in the area. Integrated ERP software solutions such as Creation Apparel allow textile manufacturers to manage sales order processing, production control, purchase order management and stock control all in one place. This creates a seamless process from customers placing an order for materials, orders going into production, orders despatched, orders billed to stock being replenished.

Efficiencies gained through ERP have created a requirement for fast, secure internet access. Ethernet leased lines meet this requirement as the bandwidth is not shared it is dedicated to the company with symmetrical upload and download speeds.
