Our Network Backbone Providers:
ColoServe is now peering with more than 37 other networks at Switch and Data's PAIX (Peering And Internet eXchange) in Palo Alto. PAIX is the largest commercial, neutral Internet Exchange point in the world, where major Telecom carriers, Internet providers, and content networks exchange Internet traffic.
The MCI UUNet network spans more than 4,500 Points of Presence (PoPs) throughout North America, Europe and the Pacific Rim, and is arguably the world's top Internet backbone. MCI's IP network maintains high levels of reliability with redundant and diverse paths to avoid single points of failure and provide optimal routing and traffic flow. MCI's state-of-the-art Network Operations Centers provide pro-active network monitoring and fault resolution 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.
The NTT/VERIO Network spans North America, Europe and the Pacific Rim, and is arguably Asia's top Internet backbone.
Level 3 operates the first global 10 Gbps (OC-192) seamless, redundant IP backbone. Level 3 has successfully constructed an international fiber optic communications network connecting Europe and the United Sates. A continuously upgradeable network with high-capacity, scalable peering interconnections ensures uncongested connectivity between the world's largest Internet backbone networks. The average latency is 40 milliseconds or less in all regions, with less than 1 percent packet loss.
The AboveNet backbone, a Tier 1, high-performance global optical IP network, has been optimized for scalability, survivability, performance, efficiency and manageability. The current AboveNet network consists of a set of sites interconnected in a partial mesh extended to accommodate a larger number of sites moving toward a two level hierarchy. This two level approach allows arbitrary scaling at either level according to various technological and business imperatives.
WilTel (formerly Williams) is one of the few national Tier 1 IP backbone providers in the U.S. With the nation’s largest, fully-lit, next-generation fiber-optic broadband network, WilTel delivers voice, data, video and IP services for some of the world’s largest telecommunications carriers, Internet service providers, global media and entertainment companies. Their MPLS-enabled IP packet over SONET (PoS) backbone offers superior redundancy, lower costs and unsurpassed IP reliability. The WilTel OC-48 PoS backbone has nearly 300 interconnection points nationwide.
