Increase Productivity 

  • Avoid network downtime that negatively affects your employees and business operations.  
  • Experience faster data transfer and reduced latency that improves business application performance. 

Save Costs with Consolidation 

  • Because multiple data streams travel on the same fiber, it reduces the number of cables required.  
  • WIN engineers can configure wavelengths that will reduce the need to deploy multiple optical fibers for their connectivity needs.  

Enhance Data Security 

  • Separation of data streams by wavelengths adds an extra layer of security. 
  • Faster backup and recovery because your business can quickly duplicate and store critical data in offsite locations. Backup routes and redundancy ensure data remains accessible and business operations can be back up and running with minimal disruption.  

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

This depends on distance.  Fiber and wavelengths will have the lowest latency of any network technology but will still be bound by the laws of physics to determine how long a transmission will take between two end points. Your network engineer can determine the answer to the question based on the distance traveled.

Market pricing is based on speed and location.

Our service area spans the entire WIN network, which covers much of Wisconsin, and Iowa and portions of Minnesota, Illinois and Michigan.

Wavelengths are inherently more secure than other network technology because the services are physically separated by different frequencies of light that do not overlap. 

WIN provides technical support and troubleshooting escalation for all network services to ensure customer issues are resolved in a timely manner.  Monitoring is also used to proactively know when issues happened instead of being reactive. 

Any network service can be converted to wavelength because it is only light without a protocol applied to it.
