  1. PowerLink WAN Aggregation and High Availability Solutions… High Speed, High Reliability, Low Cost Internet Access

  2. Multiple connections/routes from your network to the Internet over varied backbones. If a single connection fails, traffic automatically is moved to the functioning connection(s) without any disruption in service. Multiple paths + Multiple ISP’s = Maximum Redundancy What is High Availability Network Access?

  3. Routers fail CSU/DSUs fail Last mile lines get cut ISP POPs have system failures ASP and Remote access applications are becoming more popular Voice over IP is being implemented VPN is becoming very popular which means WAN access is extremely important It’s too expensive for a Business to be down... Why do I need High Availability?

  4. What is PowerLink and what can it do for me?

  5. Highest reliability for Network Access Highest possible level of redundancy Eliminates downtime for 100% Availability to and from all your network resources Automatic Load Balancing and Traffic Management Aggregated bandwidth up to 8 Mbps Bonds any combination of T1, xDSL, Wireless, ISDN, Cable, etc. Does not require any hardware, software or programming at the ISP site Easy installation Web-based management and configuration Advanced Line Monitoring with email notification Eliminates the need for expensive and complicated BGP programming PowerLink offers:

  7. Aggregates Multiple WAN connections up to 8Mbps Is Application and Hardware independent working with existing caching, firewall and authentication servers Supports multi-homing connections Supports most VPN servers and services (non-AH encrypted) Backup or redundant lines can now be a “productive” expense Link monitoring with email notification Web based Management tools for remote monitoring/control Built-in DNS server for optimum redundancy/fail-over to and from all servers on your customer’s LAN Special features of PowerLink

  8. R.O.I. and the Cost of Downtime • Meantime to repair for most providers on a failed circuit is between 3-8 hours. • CPE repair times are much higher. • One in four companies have experienced a network failure. The median length of downtime was • 8 hours. 24% of companies’ systems were down for over 24 hours. • 64% of companies do not have disaster recovery plans for their WAN. • Source: Comdisco/Bell South/Oracle Vulnerability Study • Network downtimes (LAN/WAN) among large companies cost $32.5 million per year in lost • productivity and revenue. • WANs fail or degrade on average 7.1 hours per month Source: Infonetics Research • The average Corporation has the potential to lose $7.8 million per year in WAN downtime. • Source: Infonetics Research

  9. Average hourly cost of downtime by Industry Brokerage houses: $6.4 million Credit card sales/authorization: $2.6 million Media/Pay-per-view: $150,000 Retail/Home shopping (TV): $113,000 Catalog sales: $90,000 Airline Reservations: $89,000 Package shipping: $28,000 Source: Contingency Planning Research
