XchangePoint Carries Tiscali's DataStream Broadband as Solution Continues to Become the Industry's Choice
Strategic agreement offers ISP and resellers a more cost effective and wider product portfolio
Tiscali Business Services, a division of Tiscali the Internet communications company, and XchangePoint, the leading provider of Metro-area Interconnect services, today announces an agreement to offer ISPs and resellers a further enhanced and cost effective product portfolio of broadband solutions. Tiscali's DataStream offers businesses a compelling alternative to the incumbent IPStream solution.
XchangePoint offers ISPs a virtual marketplace from which they can choose from a variety of access solutions via its metropolitan interconnect network. It offers its customers an extensive range of services that enables them to balance their peering, transit and access requirements through a single connection onto the XchangePoint platform. Customers mix and match services on the same port to best suit their needs.
Brett Wilde, COO at XchangePoint. "XchangePoint are excited to now be able to offer differentiated ADSL services. The connection with Tiscali allows us to provide services with contention ratios ranging from 50:1 to uncontended (1:1) and flexible bandwidth from 128kbp/s to 2Mb/s, all backed by service level guarantees."
Nathan Francis, Product and Services Director Tiscali business Services: "There is a real momentum behind the DataStream product as more and more resellers and ISPs are realising the business benefits that it brings. BT's incumbent IPStream solution is too constrictive for businesses, which need great flexibility in their choice of access solutions. DataStream gives them that choice with true service level guarantees."
Brett Wilde continues: "Tiscali's DataStream product offers our customers a fast, reliable and low risk access solution at minimal cost. We work with a large customer base of ISPs and resellers that are looking for more innovative solutions which Tiscali's DataStream can provide."
