United World Telecom Deploys Ecessa's WAN Device

By Anuradha Shukla, TMCnet Contributor


United World Telecom, a switch-based telecommunications service provider, has deployed Ecessa’s PowerLink WAN link controller.
 
This deployment provides continuous Internet uptime for United World Telecom’s retail, wholesale, and corporate customers who need continuous access telecommunication services.
 
According to Ecessa, United World Telecom uses multiple T1 connections to deliver customers its VoIP and Web services. The service provider was previously using only one T1 connection – leaving it vulnerable to network outages. United World Telecom eventually decided to add more T1 circuits and front-end them with a PowerLink WAN link controller.

 
Adrian Caramaliu, network engineering manager for United World Telecom noted that they don’t have to deal with network outages anymore thanks to Internet connection redundancy. The deployment has also eliminated their having to react to an Internet service provider outage by providing them with extra protection with WAN redundancy.
 
Caramaliu also said that network outages do occur quite frequently but things are different now as PowerLink automatically manages the failover and then successfully handles the traffic once the connection comes back online.
 
“We find that managed service providers receive much value from our products, as they rely upon the Internet to deliver their services. If the network connection that delivers their services goes down, their business goes down, too,” said Jason Breyer, vice president of sales at Ecessa. “Products like PowerLink are becoming a must have for MSPs that are concerned about network disaster recovery, link optimization, and security.”
