"We are thrilled to describe to you our network connectivity and proud to announce our partnership with Verizon Business, the nations largest bandwidth provider, the backbone of the internet."
LightHouse Hosting networking services are designed to ensure that your Web presence is operational and available 24x7.365. Our network strategy is designed to provide customers with outstanding levels of throughput and reliability, while maximizing efficiency and eliminating single points of failure. LightHouse's internal data center network is designed for complete fault tolerance and no single points of failure.
The Verizon North American network consists of bi-directional OC-192, OC-48, OC-12 and DS-3 trunks which are reinforced with OC-12 ATM "metro rings" in 10 metropolitan multi-hub areas. The LightHouse data center has four (4) OC-12s via MCI connected to the Elmsford Megahubs (NYC8 and NYC9).
The difference with LightHouse is that we are on the backbone, not connected to it. We are not a Point Of Presence (POP) rather our data center is an Verizon Business CAP center supporting the Verizon megahubs. |
| Our carrier guarantees 100% IP network availability, 99% or better packet delivery and 55-millisecond round-trip latency in the United States. |
The recent acquisition of MCI by Verizon has resulted in Verizon Business, a leader in the global IP network arena. Coupled with the vast domestic resources already dominated by Verizon, the acquisition of MCI has added a whole new level of global resources avaialble to all Verizon Business customers. |
MCI owned, operated, monitored and maintained one of the largest communications networks in the world, carrying over 50% of all Iternet traffic. Their network facilities are throughout North America, Latin America, Europe, Africa, and the Asia-Pacific region, in more than 140 countries and over 2,800 cities. Now globally known as Verizon, this extensive network continues to be the dominating force driving the internet today.
MCI owned the world's farthest reaching global network and spanning more than 4,500 Points of Presence (POPs) throughout the world. The global IP network can circle the globe more than four times. Additionally, MCI, now Verizon Business, remains the most connected Internet backbone provider with the greatest number of Autonomous System network connections. The new company's expansive IP footprint, coupled with its direct interconnections, exceeds all other competitor networks and enables its business customers and ISPs to reach more destinations directly through the Verizon Business global IP backbone than any other carrier. |
