Network Diagrams
The Backbone Network features full OC-3 and DS-3 fiber connections between four
regional facilities. No two regional connections travel over the same provider, ensuring
that in the event of a layer 1 connectivity problem, traffic can instantly and seamlessly
be rerouted to another node for delivery.
Network congestion is never an issue with redundant connections to 11 Tier 1
service providers. Multiple private peering and provider relationships give our customers
instant access to more than 90% of the world’s IP routes, allowing them to avoid
congested points on the Internet that cause poor network performance.
