Overview

A Private Line service is a private data connection securely connecting two or more locations with high data speeds. Private line service provides unparalleled quality of service (QoS) as it is not a shared service and follows the same direct private line network path every time. Private Line circuits are used by businesses to provide reliable, secure point to point data service for applications including credit card processing, file sharing, data backup, point to point VOIP, and video conferencing. Private Line services can also be configured to carry voice, video, Internet, and data services together over the same private line network connection.
