Broadband Internet Services are at a crossroads. Current narrowband, flat rate, non-differentiated services need to be replaced with more intelligent broadband networks that allow for customized and differentiated network services. This new, intelligent network infrastructure will allow business models to support sustainable, profitable services and businesses.

Exponential growth of the Internet is creating a huge demand for high-speed "last-mile" access. Metro Area and Long Haul Ethernet, Fixed Wireless and IP over Fiberless Optical technologies are among the most promising new developments for meeting high-bandwidth requirements for data, voice, and video integration. These technologies provide high-speed, digital data transmission over copper telephone lines, fiber Optic cables and more recently the air, allowing Secured Private Network to offer economical and easy-to-implement managed data services, as well as integrated telephony services.

Delivering multiple services over these links shifts the network paradigm from companies managing their own different communication requirements to companies partnering with service providers offering intelligent services. This managed services concept not only eases installation for subscribers, but also simplifies the process of upgrading services, which can be provisioned remotely by Secured Private Network. This fundamental shift in strategy creates opportunities for continued growth, increased profitability, and the utmost efficiency for Secured Private Network By not partnering with Cisco Systems, and instead with more forward thinking companies such as Unisphere Networks, Foundry Networks, and others Secured Private Network is building the first fully functioning “wire speed” network in the world. As most companies struggle to replace their legacy infrastructure, Secured Private Network has built and continues to build its network with only “wire speed” networking equipment from the ground up. As such we have built a new intelligent infrastructure that is more than just a commodity transport network. Secured Private Network can, therefore, bring the customer services matched only by the largest players in this market, while bringing them to market with a speed and confidence the larger vendors cannot match thus increasing market share, revenue, and profit potential.

Replacement of XDSL, T1, DS3 and OC3-192.

XDSL services once brought the promise of high speed internet to the branch office and as such we continue to service it, but the CLEC shakeout has produced low confidence in the enterprise market for this delivery method. XDSL can offer lower cost data service, as well as faster bit rates than ISDN or POTS; however as bandwidth needs are increased and Service Level Agreements are more pervasive, the need for alternate, faster and more stabile delivery methods has arisen.

Traditional T1 services delivered over Frame-Relay and ATM networks, long the province and indeed the golden goose of the incumbent telco’s often cost $1,500 or more. Delivering 1.536 Mb/s of bandwidth, T1 is a much more stable and serviceable application than XDSL, yet the unit bandwidth cost at this price is $1,000 per megabit. SPN T1 offerings based upon the leasing of readily available local loops and innovative, yet inexpensive T1 to Ethernet transmission products allows us to offer the same bandwidth of a traditional T1 at 40% the cost with the improved speed and QoS of Ethernet.

DS3 lines long stood as the communications backbone of America and have been commoditized into the high bandwidth alternative for medium sized business that outgrew T1. The average cost of a telco provided DS3 with 20 Mbs throughput to the internet is $18,0000 per month. By deploying the same innovation to DS3 services SPN can deliver a full 45 Mbs to the Internet for under $8,000. The economy of scale becomes apparent as more than twice the bandwidth is offered for less than half the price. This, however, does not fully detail the innovation of SPN as the services produce 40-50% profit per line immediately.

OC3-192 have replaced DS3 in the backbone networks and larger enterprises have utilized them to replace DS3 as their bandwidth needs outgrew the 45 Mbs limit.. By its name Ocx (optical carrierx) implies it is all fiber based and therefore among the most stable and fastest delivery methods. Using existing network architecture a low cost OC3 line to the Internet Provided by incumbent telco’s costs $70,000 per month plus the local loop cost. By comparison SPN can deliver the same product for a retail cost of under $15,000 per month with the same margin and ROI of the DS3. This holds true for all speeds across the spectrum ending at OC192 otherwise known as 10 gigabit Ethernet.

Service Level Agreements

Secured Private Network offers the options of quality guarantees in the form of service level agreements (SLAs). Secured Private Network provides the customer with a statistical measure of the defined SLAs on a monthly basis in order to demonstrate that the service is in compliance (or non-compliance) with the SLA as agreed upon with that customer.
