Broadband

Vocal IP’s broadband connections provide high speed Internet access via multiple types of technologies including coaxial cable, shared fiber service (e.g. FiOS, uVerse), 4G LTE/5G wireless, DSL and satellite. Broadband connections are usually the lowest cost alternatives on the market. The advantage of broadband connectivity is its wide availability and also its low cost. However, most broadband connections do not guarantee performance and reliability. While broadband may not be the best fit for critical business applications, many businesses leverage broadband connections as backup links or part of a SD-WAN configuration.

Vocal IP has partnered with the nation’s leading cable companies and incumbent Local Exchange Carriers (ILECs) to provide broadband connections anywhere your business has sites.

Fixed Wireless connections are capable of delivering 10 Mbps to 10 Gbps bandwidth with low latency and high reliability, just like physical fiber connections.

Vocal IP will provide the 4G/LTE managed router, the data plans over the leading national cellular carriers’ networks and comprehensive monitoring of the network equipment. Since most 4G/LTE plans have data caps, we will monitor your usage, so there are no surprises with excessive overage charges at the end of the month.
Even though 5G networks are in their early stages, select markets have 5G availability. Please contact us to find out if your location qualifies for 5G connectivity.
