TFM Networks has announced the launch of its MPLS business broadband platform, which gives organisations a carrier-grade network connection and the consistent bandwidth to carry out business-critical operations.
The Technology Infrastructure Services Provider is offering a business-only MPLS platform and the choice of a range of carriers, connectivity and service options, to give businesses the flexibility to tailor the network to support their specific operating and support requirements.
The flexibility of the TFM platform means that it is connected with other UK, European and global carriers, giving businesses the ability to deploy networks customised to their business and operating requirements. The company’s multi-lingual help desk further supports the global reach of TFM’s MPLS platform.
According to TFM, this ensures customers get the best value for money, without having to compromise on quality. Customers pay for what they use, whether it’s Bandwidth, or TFM’s unique ‘on/off’ SLA, or even the resilience options available from TFM that all go to ensure that organisations don’t pay for what they don’t need or don’t use.
Cisco-powered and VoIP- and Citrix-certified, TFM’s MPLS platform links into multiple tier-one networks including BT’s 21CN, ensuring resilient and robust network and IT services. The network operates across diversely routed, fully redundant Points of Presence, offering resilient capacity and no single point of failure. In addition, TFM offers business performance guarantees, including packages that offer less than 0.3% packet loss, and less than 80ms round trip.
TFM offers 24/7 hardware replacement from a four-hour response as well as business continuity options such as 3G rapid deploy, back-up services on LLU platforms and off-site storage systems, to guarantee network performance and recovery in any scenario.
Stewart Yates, managing director of TFM Networks said: “Our MPLS platform is purely business-grade, with business-grade support services and none of the consumer applications that can impact on bandwidth availability, giving your business the performance, reliability and support you need to ensure ‘business as usual’ at all times.
“In addition, the flexibility of our packages means that you can choose the bandwidth you need, and the support and level of managed service that is right for your business, ensuring you are only paying for what your business needs, and for what you use – even if your requirements change during the year or you need enhanced services for key periods such as Christmas trading in the retail market.
“We believe that customers should always have a choice, a choice of provider, a choice of technology and a choice of service and these should all be as flexible as possible.”
