ITC^DeltaCom, Inc., Huntsville, Ala., a provider of integrated
communications services to customers in the southeastern United States,
has announced the implementation of a network upgrade that will
immediately enable multi-meg services (up to 6 Mbs) in sixteen markets
and the future delivery of VoIP services and features.
The high bandwidth solution, which will be offered under the name
Simpli- IP, provides customers with bandwidth up to 6Mbs in data
throughput. The offering increases the bandwidth options available with
Simpli-Business, Deltacom's solution that combines the options of
Local, Long Distance, an NEC phone system and Lexmark office equipment
all bundled on a single invoice. The service is MPLS enabled to ensure
quality transmission of voice and data traffic.
"The demand for higher bandwidth Internet and site to site
data traffic continues to increase in the marketplace. Customers have
traditionally purchased separate connections with additional equipment
to enable higher speeds, leading to increased cost and complexity. This
upgrade addresses those issues by consolidating voice and data
communication over the same connection and increasing available
bandwidth," said ITC^DeltaCom's EVP, Jim O'Brien.
"This network upgrade delivers bandwidth options of up to 6Mbs
immediately in 16 markets while enabling us to create VoIP service
offerings not possible with our prior network architecture," added
Scott Yelton Director, Product Strategy. "We are committed to
continuing to develop innovative products to better serve our
customers."
