WHEN IT COMES TO GLOBAL NETWORKS, WE'VE GOT YOU ON OUR WAVELENGTH
We built it. We own it. We maintain it. Right down to the fiber in the ground and under the seas. Our optical networking technologies offer the flexibility and growth to meet your ever-changing business needs. With the customer service to back it up.
Whether you need a primary network, or a proven back-up resource to ensure your network's continuity, Global Crossing's fully fiber-optic IP network is all about capacity -- ready to meet the demands of enterprises, carriers, service providers, and research networks around the world.
Our network can handle all of today's demands and the converged broadband applications of tomorrow.
Global Crossing has sustained network availability levels of 99.999 percent -- the industry's highest standard. And currently, Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) testing is now widely available on Global Crossing's worldwide network. We provided the IP network "engine" that an international academic and research team used last year to set the Internet2® Land Speed Record for sending data around the world - demonstrating the ultimate in end-to-end Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) performance. We now connect some of the most prestigious, bandwidth-intensive, and technologically sophisticated users in the world -- a select group of National and Regional Research and Education Networks.
We have over 100,000 route miles of optical cable around the world. No other infrastructure even comes close. Our backbone network is constructed with the latest dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) technology. That means easy expandability into the photonic future. And there's no tolerance for down-time, either. A fault-tolerant design ensures our uninterrupted network availability for your critical business applications. Matrix NetSystems Internet Performance Service independently monitors Global Crossing's industry-leading network performance metrics.
Whatever core global service platform you need, we offer it. Internet Protocol, ATM/Frame Relay, Voice over IP, Voice, and Conferencing services are built over the optical backbone. Ready to deliver the services to support just about any business application you can imagine.
There are also brains behind all that brawn. Our IP network uses a single autonomous system (AS3549) of centrally controlled routers and networks to provide a seamless global network infrastructure. That means you get maximum speed and throughput in the delivery of your IP traffic. Our globally deployed, fully meshed, Multi Protocol Label Switching-Traffic Engineered (MPLS-te) IP network provides you with unprecedented traffic management and performance worldwide.
And to enhance network continuity, Global Crossing offers "DACSR" private line routing. DACSR allows you to design or backup your network through "Diversity, Avoidance, and Customer Specified Routing" -- so that worldwide uncertainty and natural disaster won't affect your essential communications.
You also get comprehensive customer service, in your language, 24x7, with one-call resolution. And most important, you get the power and flexibility of one of the world's most extensive, most reliable optical fiber networks.
Global capacity. Scalability. Performance. Support.
