Network

Your business depends on its ability to reach your customers, employees and vendors. That is why we have designed a network infrastructure capable of scaling and performing to your highest expectations. At each of our data centers, your environment can leverage our blended IP network consisting of multi-gigabit connections through diverse IP providers. If you require the ability to connect directly with other telecommunication carriers, we can facilitate that too, with direct connectivity options that are second to none.

Premium Network

Multi-homed bandwidth, where your business has access to more than one internet carrier, can be the difference between 100% uptime and an embarrassing (and expensive) outage. This is why Latisys has developed our premium network - a blend of top IP carriers that are multi-homed to provide you with a stable, redundant solution. A multi-homed network gives your business the flexibility to withstand carrier outages or performance problems as you receive bandwidth over multiple carriers automatically. Our premium network is provided by default to all colocation and managed hosting customers.

Depending on location, our premium network includes internet access through some of the following carriers:

  • XO Communications – XO Comminucations provides advanced VoIP, internet, managed network and hosted IT solutions for businesses, enterprises and goverment agencies. XO provides 10G to each of Latisys' data centers, and 20G to the Denver data center.
  • Level(3) – As an operator of one of the largest communications and Internet backbones in the world, Level(3) has an outstanding reputation for providing superior connectivity for their users. Latisys has two (2) GigE fiber connections to Level(3)’s Denver point of presence as part of our premium network.
  • AboveNet - AboveNet, Inc. provides high bandwidth connectivity solutions for business and carriers. Its private optical network delivers key network and IP services in and among top U.S. and European markets. AboveNet's network is widely used in demanding markets such as financial services, media, health care, retail and government.
