A dedicated, managed internet connection
Dedicated fiber delivers a connection dedicated solely to your communications, with consistent, reliable performance metrics and a robust service level agreement (SLA) to back them. This is why dedicated internet is also called managed internet.
Who needs a dedicated connection
A dedicated connection is a must for mission-critical applications, but can also be a requirement if traffic classifications and data prioritization must be maintained end-to-end.
One example would be video conferencing and VoIP, both sensitive to transmission delays and other artifacts of a shared connection. Hospitals using time-sensitive applications requiring strict reliability and performance, financial firms transmitting stock quotes, corporate communications, businesses sharing or delivering video to distributed locations and others are all candidates for dedicated internet.
With our dedicated connections, you also get access to much larger IP address blocks which would be a necessity for larger organizations, or smaller businesses who want to maintain addressing across locations.
