As part of Broadwing's suite of Managed Network Services, Enhanced Frame Relay service ensures that your network is fully accessible and operating at peak performance. Broadwing provides:

Proactive Monitoring of Data Service Units (DSUs)
Network engineers continuously monitor your DSUs 24x7x365 for optimal network performance. Your network is proactively monitored to isolate, resolve and prevent faults before they affect your business.

Intelligent Service Level Verification (SLV) Reports

Web-based reports offer a detailed view of your network performance and enable you to verify that your network is operating to the standards set forth in our service level agreements (SLAs). Also, track your network performance and monitor potential network overloading to assist you with capacity management and help you to plan for network growth.
