Equivoice Launches Two New MPLS Based Wireless Services for Chicago Area

Equivoice launched two new MPLS based wireless services to serve business customers in metropolitan Chicago. Equi-Wireless T1 back up provides standby wireless T-1 service and provides automatic, transparent backup, in the event of cable cuts or other outages. Equi-Wireless 2 Meg Primary is a 2 megabit full duplex service, expandable to 10 megabits, which supports voice, data and video applications. Both products can be customized.

Equi-Wireless services are robust and highly reliable. The highly scalable services utilize a mesh architecture with no common point of failure. Equi-Wireless services provide native IP addressing with no tunneling, QOS for voice services and do not traverse the open internet.

"Equi-Wireless combines the capabilities of our powerful MPLS network with the reliability and cost effectiveness of wireless, said Marcus McEwen, president of Equivoice Inc."

Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) enables customers and carriers to build next-generation intelligent networks that deliver a wide variety of advanced, value-added services over a single infrastructure. This economical solution can be integrated seamlessly over any existing infrastructure, allowing subscribers with differing access links to aggregate an MPLS edge without changing their current environments.
