Columbus Network's IP Transit Service provides international carriers, cable operators, Internet service providers and enterprises unparalleled access to the global Internet through extensive peering with tier 1 carriers, content providers, and other regional networks.

In the US, Columbus Networks operates an all-optical multi-10Gbps IP backbone, built with a fully scalable and redundant core routing architecture. Columbus Network's guarantees Customers 100% availability, normal network latency of 50 milliseconds or less and .03% or less packet loss. Columbus Networks has quickly established it's self as a premier provider of IP services to the region.

Scalable Customer Bandwidth

IP Transit service is available at speeds from 2Mbps to 10Gbps using Gigabit Ethernet and Fast Ethernet, in addition to standard ITU-T interfaces such as E1, DS3, STM1, STM4 & STM16.

Flexible Billing Solutions

Full-port, tiered, and burstable billing options are offered to meet the business needs and support the growth of our customers:

•  Full Port : Provides customer maximum IP bandwidth according to port interface i.e. E1 ~1.9Mbps DS3 ~ 43Mbps, STM-1 ~ 150Mbps. GigE ~ 1024Mbps.

•  Burst Rate : IP bandwidth provided over a given interface e.g. STM-1 with minimum commitment bandwidth 30Mbps. Customer is able to burst beyond such level, for example 60Mbps allowing customer to instantly support added demand for   bandwidth.

•  Tiered Rate: IP bandwidth provided over a given larger bandwidth interface i.e. STM4 – GigE, with fractional amount of capacity activated. Columbus Networks and customer can quickly enable additional capacity with minimum additional network change. The perfect solution for expanding network demands.
