Teligent Add Fixed Wireless Access to WilTel's National Network

In partnership Teligent, WilTel has begun offering fixed wireless access from carrier and enterprise customer premises to any of its Extended On-Net access points over line-of-sight dependent, point-to-point microwave links operating in licensed spectrum. The service is aimed at Tier 2 and 3 markets of the U.S. that are typically underserved by national network providers and where local access costs onto a national fiber backbone are high. WilTel's Extended On-Net encompasses more than 300 high-bandwidth, on-net access locations along WilTel's nationwide fiber backbone route.



Customers can choose from unprotected private line wireless DS-3 circuits or protected private line wireless DS-3 or OC-3 circuits. Ethernet wireless access is also available. Unprotected Ethernet wireless access is available at standard 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interfaces at up to 45 Mbps, while protected Ethernet wireless access is available at standard 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interfaces at up to 100 Mbps. http://www.wiltel.comhttp://www.teligent.com
