Network connectivity has developed into an integral part of today’s business infrastructure. The number of connected users directly translates into an increased demand for WAN access. Private enterprise networks, incumbent local exchange carriers, and competitive local exchange carriers (CLEC's) have all found that, in order to compete effectively, they must offer products and services which form an integrated solution.

By providing an integrated business solution, carriers now have the opportunity to leverage technology to further their own business objectives. By eliminating multiple pieces of equipment, application performance is enhanced. Through simplified configuration and network management, maintenance and support costs are dramatically reduced.
