VTX Telecom is an internet service provider based in Switzerland, known for offering high-speed internet services to various customers, including corporate clients. With approximately 30,000 customers, VTX Telecom specializes in providing fiber connections through its own fiber network, which it has developed in cities such as Geneva, Basel, and Zurich. The company serves a wide range of clients, offering telecommunication services, including secure internet connections, voice over IP, and cloud-based solutions. They cater to both large corporations and smaller businesses, ensuring reliable connectivity with cutting-edge technologies.

The company has been operating for 38 years and is considered one of the pioneers of fiber optic internet in Switzerland, building its network parallel to Swisscom, another major player in the telecommunications industry. VTX offers high-speed internet, capable of delivering speeds up to 10 gigabits per second, making them competitive in the market. They also provide telephone services, offering solutions such as virtual and physical PBX systems, and integration with Microsoft Teams. For companies outside major cities that do not have fiber infrastructure, VTX can provide alternatives such as copper connections or access to Swisscom's fiber network through a partnership.

VTX Telecom is known for its comprehensive range of services, including network security. The company provides an NLS (Network Layer Security) network, which ensures secure communication between multiple locations with redundancy for increased reliability. Their peer-to-peer services involve direct hardware connections for a more secure network infrastructure. VTX also offers dark fiber solutions, where clients can lease fiber-optic cables without additional equipment, giving them the flexibility to manage their own hardware.

A key aspect of VTX's services is the use of Cisco equipment for managing its network infrastructure. Cisco is the primary supplier of their networking hardware, ensuring high performance and compatibility with their services. VTX's commitment to security is evident in their partnerships with industry leaders like Kudelski Security, which allows them to provide advanced cybersecurity solutions, such as Security Operations Centers (SOC) for protection against cyberattacks.

In terms of data management, VTX offers cloud services, including backup solutions using NAS (Network Attached Storage). These solutions are designed to provide off-site backup options, ensuring that clients have a reliable disaster recovery plan. The company emphasizes that maintaining in-house backup systems, such as using NAS, can often be more cost-effective than relying on external cloud services like Amazon, while also providing better security controls.

VTX Telecom guarantees high uptime and reliability for its internet services, boasting a 99.999% uptime rate. They also offer backup solutions for customers, allowing for redundant internet connections to ensure continuous service in case of outages. This includes options such as SD-WAN, fiber, copper, and even mobile network solutions like 4G and 5G, which are managed through Cisco's advanced network management systems. This redundancy is especially important for businesses that require constant connectivity.

Switzerland's internet infrastructure is robust, and VTX Telecom prides itself on offering one of the most reliable and secure connections in the country. The company claims that its internet services, particularly fiber, are highly secure due to the stringent measures taken when building its network. In terms of speed, VTX offers a minimum of 1 Gbps for dedicated lines and up to 10 Gbps for larger customers, ensuring high-speed internet for a wide range of business needs.

Finally, VTX Telecom caters to businesses of all sizes, from large enterprises to small one-person operations. While larger clients typically benefit from dedicated lines and higher speeds, smaller businesses and individuals can access affordable internet services through fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) or VDSL connections, with prices as low as 100 Swiss Francs per month. This flexibility makes VTX a versatile provider, capable of meeting the needs of various types of customers across Switzerland.
