New Edge Competitive Positioning
New Edge is a nationwide CLEC (Competitive Local Exchange Carrier) provider of business-class DSL and T1 services that owns and operates its own equipment in thousands of phone company central offices. The only other nationwide DSL provider is Covad.
New Edge is the highest rated nationwide CLEC according to Broadband Reports.
Private Networks: Many industries, including retailers, banking, franchises, and credit card authorization networks, have needs for traditional private networks and use technologies such as Frame Relay, ATM, or Point-to-Point T1, but have been unable to take advantage of the dramatic cost savings offered by DSL services. New Edge has flexible and strong solutions for building private networks that leverage the low cost of DSL lines. New Edge can create traditional type networks such as ATM, Frame Relay, and private IP using low-cost DSL transport services. This can represent a substantial savings for companies who still depend on legacy networks. By eliminating the need for traditional VPN equipment and the associated support requirements, a private network configuration is a smart alternative for many applications.
For large networks, New Edge can offer a fully managed network structure that allows companies to outsource all of their network management.
For organizations deploying latency and performance sensitive applications, like VoIP, video conferencing, or core operational applications, companies can deploy new Edge Multi-protocol Label Switching (MPLS) network services technology to gain the full advantages of Class of Service (COS) traffic prioritization and bandwidth management. In addition to MPLS, companies can deploy full end-to-end ATM transport technology for latency-sensitive applications, including DSL transport.
New Edge can offer higher speed services including fractional DS3 in 3 mbps increments up to 45 mbps, full DS3 45 mbps, OC-3 (155 mbps), OC-12 (621 mbps), Fast Ethernet (100 mbps), and gig Ethernet (1000 mbps).
