Not typically. Full fibre delivers up to 1Gbps with 5–15ms latency. Starlink delivers 50–250Mbps with 20–40ms latency. Fibre is superior for most business applications where available.
When full fibre and 4G/5G aren't viable — remote rural locations, temporary sites, vessels or vehicles. If fibre is available at your address, it's almost always the better choice for a permanent business installation.
Yes — Starlink works well as a failover for fibre-served locations. Telexico configures dual-WAN setups with Starlink as backup, activating automatically if fibre fails.
