National Network Coverage

Earthwave has a diverse network, with carrier-class multi-service Alcatel switches, which enable us to deliver Frame Relay, ATM, IP, Private Line, and business-class DSL services to just about anywhere in the country.

Built around multiple regional aggregation points (RAPs) located in major metropolitan areas, our network extends into several hundred markets - including rural and semi-rural towns and cities. We house all of our RAP sites in "carrier hotels," or secure collocation facilities, and deploy all remaining terminal sites at local exchange carrier (LEC) central office locations.

The Earthwave backbone is a nationwide system of protected optical transport configured for redundant service. By coupling layer 1 protection with layer 2 dynamic rerouting, Earthwave can provide a rock-solid base for transport. We have selected a variety of tier-1 transport providers, greatly reducing our exposure to fiber cuts and other catastrophic failures through diversification. Our national ATM network, paired with a parallel IP backbone, offers customers an extremely flexible network capable of meeting almost any requirement.

Earthwave maintains network-to-network interfaces (NNIs) with every RBOC in the nation and supplemental coverage NNIs to a variety of independent LECs. We peer with national ISPs, large hosting providers, and regional telephone companies like Yahoo, Broadwing, Digex, and SBC Internet to further benefit our customers.
