TDM Transport and SONET Ring Services

How AFS has improved private line services.

It's easy to see terms like "STM-4/4c" and "OC-192" and assume that private lines are private lines, no matter which company you get them from.

But it's simply not like that. The company you choose will have a significant impact on how that service measures up, on how your company performs, on how well you sleep at night.

So we recommend you do this: Determine which companies offer what you need. In this case, its fiber-based private line connections between remote locations. Then, determine which of those companies consistently makes things easy and seamless for their customers, no matter what the service offering.

Here's what AFS offers for private line services:

  • Point-to-point or dedicated ring configuration.
  • A wide selection of speeds, including DS-1, DS-3, OC-3/3c & STM-1, OC-12/12c & STM-4/4c, OC-48/48c & STM-16/16c and OC-192.
  • Scalable and redundant connectivity to ensure data security.

Seem similar to other companies? Sure it does. But here's where things get different:

  • We stick by our price quotes. We deliver when we say we'll deliver. These seem like simple things-until you're dealing with a company that doesn't believe in them.
  • When you have a problem, it's easy to talk to a real live person at AFS. We don't use auto-attendants, so you'll have to get used to the idea of talking to real live people who can actually get things done.
  • We believe in treating our customers the way we want to be treated ourselves.

Sure, hearing that we can provide OC-12/12c is important. But hearing that we'll make things easy for you is pretty important, too.
