Metro Private Line Access

Who needs Private Line service?

You, if this scenario applies.You have high-capacity, mission-critical communications requirements between two or more distant locations. Dial-up service is inadequate; and it’s not logistically (or financially) feasible for you to build your own network.

Private Line service from Electric Lightwave can handle long interval data transmission, Wide Area Network connectivity, video transmission, multi-media connectivity, or Internet connectivity. And we can provide you with an end-to-end solution utilizing our extensive long haul and metro networks.

If your company has a vital need for security in the transfer of your information, private line is an ideal solution. Nobody else’s data shares the transport channel, and your data doesn’t go anywhere but where you’ve dedicated it to go. You are the exclusive user. In short, it’s your own private network.

A network you can count on

The best service is the kind you never have to think about.That's what you get with Electric Lightwave's Synchronous Optical NETwork (SONET) and Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) fiber optic network. It delivers exceptional transmission quality, and is fully redundant. Our ring configuration offers diverse routes between network locations, all independent of your local exchange carrier. We have a 24 x 7 network monitoring system, with self-diagnostic capabilities that identify and resolve problems before you're even aware of any service disruption. And just in case, we have automatic switched backup of power and electronics.

Flexible, long-term solutions, not dead ends

You might start by using private line service as a cost-effective alternative to long distance. As you grow however, you may want to use it to create Wide Area Networks to transmit data between offices, or to connect to the Internet. The more you take advantage of it, the more valuable it becomes. And as you continue to grow, a simple call to Electric Lightwave will increase your bandwidth to accommodate your expanded need. No matter how much you spread out across the country, Electric Lightwave can provide a solution. Through alliances with other carriers, we offer nationwide connectivity.
