Perfect for medium and large businesses looking for a highly reliable private point-to-point network that can handle moving large data volumes.
Dedicated wavelength means dedicated bandwidth and guaranteed performance. Unlike technologies that operate over a shared medium, each customer is allocated a dedicated channel on 42-24’s passive optical network, so you know the bandwidth will always be there when you need it.
42-24 uses Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology to provide you with a long-haul high-capacity dedicated communications channel.
Wavelength-division multiplexing combines multiple optical carrier signals onto a single optical fibre by using different wavelengths of laser light.
This service can either be protected or unprotected. Protected wavelength services are mapped on two geographically diverse paths, allowing protection to be provided by 42-24’s state of the art optical transport network, in speeds from 10 Gbps to 200 Gbps.
Unprotected wavelength services are mapped on a specific geographic path, allowing clients the flexibility to control their own network redundancy. Wavelength services are typically available in more areas than dark fibre, and more cost effective over long distances, while maintaining raw speed and value for money.
