Point-to-Point DSL Now a Reality

WAKEFIELD, MA – (February 12, 2000) – Tier1Net, Inc., a full service Integrated Communications Provider specializing in wholly managed Internet network solutions, announced today that DSLWAN (DSL Wide Area Network) will be a part of their second quarter product mix. DSLWAN allows two or more physical locations to connect networks via DSL, thus simulating a “point-to point” DSL connection.

“With this exciting new technology, branch and satellite offices are able to share the same resources as the main facility,” Marc Capobianco, President, Tier1Net, says. “Using our ‘fast-switching’ technology, we are able to create a Wide Area Network that offers the same advantages of a Local Area Network.”

Tier1Net has provided a fully managed solution to allow its customers to efficiently communicate and draw information from the same network regardless of their office location. Customers will benefit from the higher level of security provided by DSLWAN, due to the fact that the connection will not be formed through the public Internet. Tier1Net’s proactive WAN/LAN monitoring services significantly broaden the realm of DSLWAN by making it a completely managed product, for businesses of any size and for those with aspirations of growth.

CorJen Construction, LLC, a Boston based full-service general contractor and construction management company, will be Tier1Net’s first DSLWAN client. With offices from Maine to Florida, CorJen needed a reliable, secure method of connecting all of their offices.

“Tier1Net has really addressed our needs. We didn’t think it would be possible to connect these offices so easily,” explains Joe Shmoe, CTO, CorJen Construction. “We plan to continue using Tier1Net for all of our new locations.”
