Network Specifications
Infrastructure
Our fibre regional backbones are designed to be fully redundant, resilient architectures ensuring a robust and fault-tolerant network. Gb-Ethernet connections to separate and diverse Tier-I carriers, provide diverse and redundant IP transit links to the Internet, thereby ensuring customers have highly reliable a arobust and fault-tolerant access to the Internet.
Technology
We use Cisco Systems, and Alcatel-Lucent to drive this infrastructure. These technology partners give Atria an edge in innovation and Quality of Service options.
Architecture
Tested to terabits per second providing maximum network switching capacity.
Redundancy in switching locations and POP sites.
Standards-based Ethernet backbone with wirespeed switching.
Wirespeed Switching Performance.
Port-to-port latency of 15 ms from core PoP to core PoP within one region.
All access/backbone trunks carried over high-quality fibre.
Quality-of-service and bandwidth management are performed in hardware, with no impact on network performance flexibility.
Standard customer interfaces offering includes Ethernet interfaces, 10/100/1000Mbps.
Also available: 10 Gigabit Ethernet, SONET OC-3/12/48/192, DWDM wavelengths.
Transparent Layer 2 Functionality.
Standards-based VLAN technology as per IEEE 802.1q.
Multiple VLANs can be provided over one physical port.
Point-to-point connectivity over standard Ethernet interfaces.
Secure private network between your locations that is managed and configured to your needs.
With our fibre-optic connectivity options, you get the only connection you will ever need at data rates that exceed your requirements.
Provides the high-availability you require to keep your business connected 24/7/365.
Security
