International DiaLinx Beginning in the first quarter of 1998, GTE Internetworking will offer businesses remote access through its International DiaLinx service available in 100 countries worldwide. With the launch of our International dial-up services we can provide customers with seamless, reliable access to the Internet wherever they travel. This brings GTE Internetworking's DiaLinx coverage in major metropolitan areas to nearly 400 dial-up locations. The availability of ISDN capability provides greater flexibility to the DiaLinx service for better performance and increased cost savings to the corporate customer. ISDN will initially be made available in over 100 major metropolitan areas, with broad coverage provided by the end of the year.
Businesses retain control of network access and user authentication via a simple Web interface.
By integrating this application into the DiaLinx service, GTE Internetworking's business customers will have access to a continually updated list of local DiaLinx numbers even as the network continues to expand. DiaLinx is ideal for organizations looking to provide their mobile professionals or telecommuting employees with connectivity to enhance their productivity, as well as a secure, reliable, private dial-up network.
