Broadwing
FrameConnect is an innovative and unique approach to packaging Frame
Relay service. The result is a cost effective, flat-rate service
that takes the guesswork out of complex Frame Relay network design
and pricing. Specifically created for networks of 50 nodes or less,
FrameConnect is the perfect solution for mid-size networks requiring
a secure, reliable LAN/WAN communications platform at an affordable
price.
Dependable
Frame Relay Service
Frame Relay is a proven technology designed specifically for connecting
local area networks (LANs) and inherently provides secure, reliable,
consistent transmission of all your data traffic.
Superior
Network Reliability
We understand that your data network is the lifeblood of your organization
and that you depend upon your carrier to provide trouble-free transmission.
For that reason, Broadwing has engineered a redundant, fast-restore
network with a 100% uptime network guarantee1. Our network
includes:
•
Dual, physically diverse fiber routes to each Frame Relay / ATM
switch
• Alcatel switches with dual switching fabrics and control
cards
• Soft Permanent Virtual Circuits (SPVCs) that automatically
reroute around network failures
Business
Continuity
Broadwing's FrameConnect solution comes standard with two "always-on"
host Frame Relay nodes for disaster recovery and automatically reroutes
network traffic to a contingency site of your choosing. This feature
protects against catastrophic disasters including faulty CPE, routers,
host computers, local loops or problems with local exchange carrier
facilities.
Guaranteed
Performance
Broadwing's Frame Relay network was built to offer exceptional latency
performance, data throughput, and availability. Our standard offering
provides network based performance guarantees and with the addition
of intelligent customer premise equipment, Broadwing can optionally
provide a fully managed network solution with end-to-end performance
guarantees.
Extensive
Reporting
Our easy-to-use, network-based Web reporting provides all of the
information you need to manage the growth and performance of your
network. Reports include detailed data delivery information, CIR
utilization, and circuit availability. All of this information is
available in graphical and table formats and user selectable groups
and intervals.
