Today’s businesses are looking for a high-speed, fiber optic-based solution that fits their needs without having to pay a premium for it. Long Island Fiber Exchange (LIFE) provides businesses, educational institutions and municipalities with customized fiber optic-based solutions at a cost that is 20-40% lower than what the large competitors charge.
Since its incorporation 10 years ago, LIFE has constructed over 700 miles of fiber network, connecting hundreds of buildings and customers throughout Nassau and Suffolk. Despite the turbulent economy, LIFE has grown its customer base, and picked up several major business contracts as a result of its growing reputation in the industry and its competitive advantage.
LIFE offers the following solutions: dark private networks; dedicated lit circuits; high-speed, full duplex, dedicated Internet access starting at speeds of 10 megabits per second (Mbps); voice services including PRIs; remote data backup and e-mail archiving; managed firewall, content and spam filtering; antivirus and anti-spyware services; and Web hosting and Web site design services. These services are offered as individual or bundled services. Higher bandwidth options of up to ten gigabits per second — for both Internet access and dedicated lit circuits — are available as required.
LIFE works with companies to provide the solution that meets the organization’
LIFE began its growth by providing fiber optic solutions to school districts, libraries and municipalities. Now, LIFE serves technology firms, publishers, graphic arts departments, hospitals, engineering firms and manufacturers, among others. Mr. Grubman said these companies use LIFE’s solutions for private networks, high bandwidth applications, data storage and off-site disaster recovery.
