Expert Point-to-Point Wireless Links in Gloucestershire
Connect your outbuildings without the cost and mess of digging trenches. Cotswold Fibre Tech installs enterprise-grade Building-to-Building wireless bridges to beam your high-speed internet across gardens, farms, and commercial estates. Enjoy flawless, gigabit-speed WiFi in your garden office, barn, or warehouse as if it were hardwired directly to your main router.
The Smart Alternative to Trenching Cables
You have fast broadband in your main property, but you desperately need it in a separate building hundreds of meters away. Running a physical armoured data cable or fibre optic line is the traditional method, but what happens when you have to cross a freshly laid driveway, a public road, or a protected Cotswold stone patio? The cost of groundworks and trenching can easily run into the thousands. A Point-to-Point wireless link is the modern, cost-effective solution. By mounting a small, discreet dish on the outside of your main building and another on your outbuilding, we create an invisible, encrypted laser-fast data link through the air.
High-Speed Connectivity for Every Environment
We use robust, weather-proof hardware from industry leaders like Ubiquiti to guarantee a connection that never drops.
Garden Offices & Annexes
Working from a new timber garden room or converted garage? We can beam your home’s broadband directly to your workspace. We install the wireless bridge and then fit a dedicated WiFi Access Point inside the room, giving you rock-solid Zoom calls and fast downloads completely separate from your home’s main WiFi traffic.
Farms & Agricultural Estates
Modern farming requires connectivity. Whether you need internet in the lambing shed to monitor cameras, or WiFi across the farmyard to sync agricultural machinery and iPads, our long-range PtP links can beam your internet across vast distances (up to several kilometers) as long as there is a clear line of sight.
Remote CCTV & Automated Gates
Securing the perimeter of a large property? We use specialized wireless bridges to connect remote IP CCTV cameras and smart intercom gates back to your main house network. This saves you from tearing up your long driveway to lay miles of expensive network cabling, while still delivering 4K security footage with zero lag.
Commercial Multi-Building Campuses
If your business is expanding into a neighboring unit across the industrial estate, you don't need to pay for a second expensive broadband contract. We can wirelessly link the two buildings together, allowing both offices to share the same high-speed internet connection, servers, and VoIP phone systems securely.
Glamping Sites & Holiday Lets
Supplying fast WiFi to remote glamping pods or holiday cottages is a guaranteed way to boost your Airbnb reviews. We design Point-to-Multipoint (PtMP) networks, beaming your main internet connection from a central mast to multiple different pods across your site simultaneously.
No-Dig, Zero-Mess Installations
The biggest advantage of a wireless bridge is the preservation of your property. There are no diggers, no torn-up lawns, and no lifting block paving. Our installations are rapid, exceptionally discreet, and leave zero footprint on your landscaping, making them perfect for listed properties and manicured Cotswold gardens.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wireless Bridges
Does bad weather or heavy rain affect the WiFi signal?
A: No. We use enterprise-grade, weather-proof equipment operating on 5GHz and 60GHz frequencies that are specifically designed to punch through heavy rain, fog, and snow without losing bandwidth. Once perfectly aligned and locked in by our engineers, your connection will remain rock-solid regardless of the British weather.
Is a wireless bridge as fast as a physical cable?
A: Yes, modern Point-to-Point links are incredibly fast. Depending on your needs and the hardware we specify, we can install links capable of Gigabit (1000 Mbps) speeds. This is often faster than the actual broadband coming into your house, meaning there will be absolutely zero bottleneck for your devices.
Do the dishes need to physically "see" each other?
A: Yes, for the best and fastest performance, Point-to-Point links require a “Clear Line of Sight” (LoS). This means no thick trees or other buildings blocking the invisible path between the two dishes. During our free site survey, we will check for obstructions and find the optimal mounting points on your property.
How far can a Point-to-Point wireless link transmit internet?
A: The range is incredibly impressive. Depending on the specific hardware we use, enterprise-grade PtP links can transmit high-speed data anywhere from 10 meters across a residential garden, right up to 15 kilometers (over 9 miles) across sprawling agricultural land or valleys. For a standard garden office, we use very small, discreet dishes. For long-range farm links or linking commercial warehouses across Gloucestershire, we install high-power directional antennas. The only strict requirement for those massive distances is a clear Line of Sight (LoS) between the two points!
Do I need an Ofcom license for a Point-to-Point wireless link?
A: In the vast majority of cases, no. The enterprise-grade Ubiquiti bridges we install for homes, farms, and most commercial sites operate on Ofcom license-free frequencies (typically 5GHz or 60GHz). This is a massive benefit because it means once the equipment is installed, there are absolutely zero ongoing monthly costs or licensing fees. You own the link outright. For highly specialized, carrier-grade enterprise links where guaranteed, interference-free bandwidth is legally required, we can specify and install “Licensed Microwave” hardware, but 99% of our Cotswold clients run perfectly on high-speed, license-free equipment.
