The DataXchange backbone has been engineered to ensure reliability and continuity of service. DataXchange offers both local and national frame relay Internet access. DataXchange places no restrictions on a customer's use of bandwidth. Connectivity is provided using best of breed Cisco 7500 routers. Unlike other carriers who oversell their capacity, DataXchange does not oversell its backbone.
Customers gain access to the full capacity that they have paid for.
Business users gain the highest level of reliability possible thanks to DataXchange s careful capacity management. When unveiled later this year, DoubleNet will provide backup connectivity in cases where a customer s primary carrier cannot provide Internet service due to power outages, failure or capacity overload problems. DoubleNet works in a way that is transparent to the end customer. All rerouting between the primary network provider and DataXchange happens behind the scenes and is coordinated by the two providers, freeing the customer from maintaining their own complex dual homing capability. DataXchange will extend this backup service to national or regional ISPs, enabling them to offer their customers a higher level of reliability.
