T1 provides you with 1.544 Mbps of bandwidth over a non-shared, non-fractional
leased line. FullChannel T1 also comes with a variety of pricing plans. You can
choose "price-protected" monthly billing, where your bill is fixed each
month, or our "usage-based" billing option, which bases your monthly
bill on traffic samples taken every five minutes -- allowing you to pay for only
the bandwidth that you use. | | FlexChannel
T1 | | With
FlexChannel T1, you pay for what you need. Match your bandwidth and your usage
with a predetermined level (128 Kbps, 256 Kbps, 384 Kbps, 512 Kbps, 768 Kbps)
of bandwidth set at a fixed monthly fee. The remainder of the T1 is reserved for
you, so that you can easily upgrade to a full T1 later at any time. This allows
you to start with a low monthly price and grow your bandwidth as your business
grows. Upgrades are quick, easy and hassle free. |
| MulitTier
T1 | | Have
you outgrown your T1 but can't justify the cost of a full T3? Multi-T1 Dedicated
Internet Access provides 3 Mbps of speed through multiple T1 lines bonded together
into a single router. With flat-rate billing, this is the multi-megabit bandwidth
solution you've been asking for. |

Address Translation (NAT) |
Provides
translation from privately assigned network addresses to globally recognizable
IP addresses Internet standard |
Any
enterprise can connect to the XO network and comunicate with others by leveraging
NAT to perform the translation of the private enterprise internal network address
to the publicly recognizable Internet address Allows for
the conservation of scarce IP addresses | |
| Why
XO? | | Guaranteed
Bandwidth! | | Our
Quality of Service guarantees cover your network service from end-to-end whether
you're connecting to the Internet or to one of your remote offices on our network.
The most competitive in the industry, our Service
Level Agreements cover the three most important quality
issues: throughput, latency and packet loss. Throughput
is the sustained rate of traffic you can push through your connection with minimal
packet loss. Because we guarantee 100% of your throughput, you will always have
the full bandwidth you pay for. Latency is the time it takes for your traffic
to transit our network. From any two points on our network, we guarantee that
the measured latency will be, on average, 80 milliseconds or less. Our less than
1% packet loss guarantee ensures that your data will arrive intact. |
| We
Make Installation Easy | | Router
and CSU installation is critical to the integrity of your network connection.
To ensure success, our network engineers will configure and install your equipment,
which you lease from XO, onsite anywhere in the United States for a nominal fee.
This relieves you of any headaches associated with setup, installation and configuration
of hardware. We supply only top of the line routers and hardware from Cisco Systems®
and Nortel® Networks. And, we offer Network Address Translation (NAT) enabled
routers. For more information, please contact your sales representative. |
| Superior
Network Performance | | The
XO network is a private IP network that connects you to the Internet via a high-capacity,
nationwide ATM backbone. Delivering performance, reliability and security, the
XO network is engineered for low latency, low packet loss, and high network availability
and throughput. Rigorously engineered for business-critical operations, our network
comprises a mesh of redundantly engineered OC-3, OC-12 and OC-48 circuits that
connect with more than 60 nationwide SuperPOPs to one another and to the Internet.
Widely dispersed data centers provide an additional layer of redundancy, ensuring
the integrity of your connection. |
| A
Fast, Reliable Internet Connection | |
As one of the few fully peered,
facilities-based, Tier 1 Internet backbone providers in both the United States
and Europe, XO has hundreds of private peering arrangements in most major metropolitan
areas at speeds of up to OC-12. By taking advantage of our private peering relationships
with virtualy all major Internet providers, you can route your customers around
congested public peering points, giving them reliable connectivity and optimum
speed and throughput. And, with self-healing SONET metro fiber rings and a meshed
SuperPOP network architecture, we can provide redundancy and high availability
to you and your customers. | |
