NTT Communications' IP Network Only Does Data

NTT Communications' robust, flexible network only carries data. The data-only network:

• Only uses the latest technologies, handpicked by our engineers to provide high-volume transport at commercial-strength bandwidths.
• Does not include voice ride-alongs to clog traffic like traditional voice communications companies that rely on legacy technology.
• Deploys regular upgrades to keep our customers at the leading edge of dynamic Internet connectivity.

Built-in Geographic and Carrier Redundancies

The NTT Communications' Global Tier One Network is your seamless connection to the world. Its built-in redundancies consist of:

• Densely meshed paths between most major network points, both domestically and internationally.
• At least two connections, each from a different carrier, at many of the major points in the network.
• Non-reliance on any one vendor in the event of an outage or a broken link.
• Multiple, highly secure carrier-class Points of Presence.
• Extensive private peering relationships to enable data to bypass the congestion of the public Internet and get to its destination fast.

NTT Communications has 24/7/365 network monitoring at our state-of-the-art Network Operations Center (NOC) which:

• Provides real-time alarming, forecasting, traffic management, event notification, upgrades and service level agreements.
