D&E continues to extend its capabilities with MPLS-enabled network solution
Ephrata, PA -- D&E Communications, Inc. (D&E) (NASDAQ: DECC), a leading provider of integrated communications services in central and eastern Pennsylvania, announced today the launch of its Managed IP VPN solution. D&E's IP VPN offering is delivered over their extensive IP/MPLS backbone, providing a scalable and cost efficient solution for business customers. As a managed solution, a customer no longer needs to worry about the administration of equipment, routing, and configuration. The responsibility of these tasks is fully managed by D&E.
IP VPN is a Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS)-enabled solution, which supports and prioritizes data, voice, and video traffic over multiple broadband access technologies. IP VPN allows businesses to transition to Next Generation Network services and move away from traditional legacy-based transport methods. It is a solution built for businesses with multiple locations, providing any-to-any connectivity and Quality of Service (QoS) metrics for mission-critical applications.
"Our IP VPN service provides the security of a private network while taking advantage of the economies of scale and cost effectiveness of large public networks," said David Moore, Vice President of Business Development and Marketing for D&E Communications. "It also allows our customers to reduce capital and operational costs by allowing customers to focus on their business rather than daily network operations."
Today's release exemplifies D&E's on-going strategy to provide communication and technology solutions to business customers, resulting in cost efficiencies, network convergence, and adaptability for future growth.
