Private Line Service Features and Benefits
Ensure business continuity with a secure, reliable Private Line
When your connection carries important, time-sensitive content, the answer is a dedicated, facilities-based Private Line.
Benefits of Metro Private Line (MPL)
Expandability
MPL is designed to be flexible to meet changing requirements. The AdaptiveBuild® process combines our Carrier's proprietary market knowledge with design and construction expertise to produce network solutions that are purpose-built for specific application and service needs. The carrier owns network infrastructure in major metropolitan areas throughout the US and globally, which allows for customized solutions for specific customer requirements.
Reliability
An all fiber synchronous optical network (SONET) provides up to a 99.999% service level agreement (SLA). 24x7 reliability includes monitoring service and guaranteed transmission reliability. Reliability and on-time provisioning guarantees.
Our facilities-based network has fully mirrored, 24 x 7 Network Operations Centers (NOCs) in three different time zones. We ensure diversity by minimizing network spurs and collapsed intercity rings; building diverse laterals and offering physical, electrical, and dual-gateway diversity options. Your high bandwidth, survivable applications rely on the diversity of the underlying physical network. we offer a broad portfolio of physical transport routes. For example, we are one of the few global network operators that offers three or more physically distinct routes in and out of 72 North American cities, and 4, 5 or 6 routes out of some major markets.
Security
Fiber optic circuits are tamper resistant, providing an extra level of security.
Multiplexing
Multiple services can be multiplexed into OC-N services to take advantage of economies of scale. For example, it is less expensive to install and maintain one high-speed line than it is to run multiple lower speed lines. MPL can multiplex lower speed lines at the end points and potentially save you money.
Cost Savings
MPL can eliminate the need for multiple lines to support voice, data and video applications. Additionally, discounted, term and volume contract options offer a choice of savings plans.
End-to-End, Full Channel Platform
Connect with a single provider ensuring maximum connectivity. E1 connectivity allows connectivity between North American cities and the rest of the world.
High-Capacity, High Speed Connections
Support critical applications with speeds from T1 or E1 to STM-16/OC-48.
Ethernet Line Speeds Available
Benefit from direct Ethernet network connections with Fast E and Gig E Ethernet Private Line connections.
The most extensive Global Network
Link sites around the globe free from interoperability concerns. Working with a single global provider allows for streamlining of contracts, provisioning and ongoing service.
Flexible, Accessible Networking
Connect via our Access Services, including Collocation and Metro Services.
Benefits of Point-to-Point Private Line
Transmit content in one of the most secure network environments possible - a dedicated private line.
High-Capacity Bandwidth
From DS-1 (1.5 Mbps) to DS-3 (45 Mbps) to OC-n
Reliability
Our network features a unique "flat" SONET architecture for greater reliability, resulting in 100% network availability. Our long distance self-healing fiber backbone routes are configured into 24 major "loops" that provide automatic rerouting paths in case of line breaks or outages. Backed by competitive Service Level Agreements with 24x7 network management and monitoring.

Service
We monitor our private line network around the clock and provide you a single point of contact for problem resolution that's available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You are also provided access to a web-based portal, enabling pre-qualification of locations, obtain price quotes and track orders, all online.br />
Scalability
We offer end-to-end, dedicated circuits supporting synchronous data transmissions at speeds of sub-56Kbps all the way up to OC-192. Circuits can be customized between locations.
Aggressive Pricing
We will work with you and your growing business needs to provide service options at competitive prices. We also offer consolidated billing for voice and data. Flexible market and CO level pricing is available and customers can select from 12- up to 60-month contract terms
