Today, many companies are looking to create cost-effective access to company information to accommodate the needs of remote employees and distant offices. With multiple locations, there is one thing that all of them need: a way to maintain fast, secure and reliable communications. A VPN is a highly secure and scalable hardware based solution that truly allows you to consolidate all of your applications, users, and support infrastructure.

>MPLS
Access Point's Multi-Protocol Label Switching service (MPLS), service connects multiple locations while also converging voice, video, and data onto one network at required performance levels. MPLS is a network-based solution that is intelligent and manages the varying needs and performance parameters for different types of traffic.

With MPLS comes flexibility. We provide the router at each site for use of the MPLS service. Our MPLS service is a highly scalable and secure solution that allows you to truly consolidate all of your applications and support infrastructure onto a single network. Subscribe to additional network-based, value-added services, like secure Internet gateways and remote access to create a total telecommunications solution that best fits your business needs.

MPLSServices Allow You To:

• Improve communications by prioritizing traffic and enabling voice and video multicasts
• Provide scalability to move and change as businesses restructure by simplifying network integration and management
• Support supply chain initiatives by providing connectivity with strategic partners
• Adapt to any network topology (Hub & Spoke, Mesh)
• Secure segmentation of network traffic equivalent to Layer 2 (i.e. Frame Relay)

MPLS Benefits:

• Greater service flexibility. We can provide a customer-tailored solution by making network management optional, supporting multiple protocols, and providing a variety of access options.
• Breadth of value added services. Eliminate incremental CPE requirements for such services as secure internet gateways, network-based firewalls, and remote access.
• Remote Access. Employees are able to securely access the corporate network anytime, anywhere.
• Self-healing network. In the event of an outage, data is automatically rerouted to another path to prevent delays and congestion.
