• We can design, engineer and implement a solution that works for even the most demanding network environment.

Physical route diversity

First Mile offers true physical route diversity that gives you seamless connectivity in the event of a land-based network failure.

Why is route diversity important?

• All fiber and copper-based services enter office buildings through the same vault and duct bank. If one fiber is cut, all fibers are cut.
• What would an outage cost your company in lost business, productivity and reputation? The FCC reports that the average network outage in 2006 was 4.5 hours.
