The telco also announced the national roll-out of its high-speed symmetrical business broadband packages for the SME and corporate markets with no usage limits last Wednesday. The new packages will be available to business customers throughout the 37 Smart Telecom exchanges in Dublin, Cork, Donegal, Galway, Laois, Limerick, Louth, Sligo and Waterford.
