One Ring's Combination of Wired and Wireless Connections Means 100
Percent Up Time for Coal Marketing
Alternative Access Carrier Frees Businesses From Multi-Carrier Dependence
ATLANTA, GA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- December 18, 2006 -- One Ring Networks,
provider of next generation end-to-end telecommunications services,
announced today that Coal Marketing Services, Ltd. is deploying its
combination of wireless and fiber network solutions for complete
redundancy and diversity that guarantees 100 percent up time.
"Traditionally companies achieve redundancy by connecting to multiple
providers. The problem with this is that most of these connections are
entering the building through the same conduit. If that conduit is
compromised, everything fails," explained Matt Liotta, Founder of One
Ring Networks. "One Ring has solved this problem by providing a fiber
and wireless connection then managing fail-over to efficiently re-route
traffic."
"We went with One Ring Networks for our data communications because we
need a reliable single point of contact for a multi-line, redundant
solution," said Carter Fly, IT Manager for Coal Marketing. "The fiber
and wireless solution One Ring manages simplifies my job and reduces
network engineering consulting hours, reducing our costs significantly."
One Ring Networks operates an extensive, high-speed fixed wireless
network that offers both carrier and physical redundancy for fiber and
multiple T connections. For companies that require 100 percent
availability of online services, One Ring offers fixed wireless
redundancy options that provide real-time fail-over from wire line circuits.
