Eclipse Internet has launched a range of business broadband packages which it claims feature its fastest ever speed.

The service comes with an advertised speed of up to 24mbps, bundled with several add-ons aimed at small business users.

These include a telephone deal which gives users 1,000 minutes of calls to UK non-premium number landlines and data back-up facilities, together with hosted Exchange and hosted Sharepoint.

Prices begin at £14.95 a month for 3GB of data and one email address, and climb to £49.95 a month for a comprehensive package featuring unlimited downloads and five Hosted Exchange licences.

Eclipse Internet's head of sales and marketing Mark Thomas said that in addition to the service provider's "highest ever speed broadband connection", the deals offered real value for money.

"We've tailored each package to suit the needs of different types of business, from a home office wanting fast internet and cheaper calls through to a medium-sized, multi-site organisation wanting unlimited download capability," added Mr Thomas.

KCOM Group-owned Eclipse Internet also offers up to 24mbps services to consumers.

News of the packages comes just days after Orange unveiled its latest broadband deals.

The internet service provider has recently upgraded its network in a bid to improve the quality of service it offers to customers and is staging a free broadband offer to mark the occasion.

Orange's pay monthly mobile customers will be able to take advantage of up to 8mbps broadband speeds without charge if they sign up to an 18-month contract.
