Faster, better value
Technological innovations mean that benefitting from the high performance and throughput of a private network is no longer a costly or complicated exercise. With Nexconnect, access is priced at a flat rate – not on a usage basis – which helps you better manage your costs and communications budget. It can also allow you to enjoy the benefits of:
- seamless and secure connection for intranet and extranet applications
- rapid exchange of data files
- savings on IT, maintenance, investment and administrative costs.
Secure and scalable
Essentially, Nexconnect’s Transparent Local Area Network (TLAN) provides a securely linked private network for a multi-site environment (of up to 200 user locations or ‘tails’). Alternatively, our IPVPN provides a highly scaleable IP solution for networks in excess of 200 users. Many users love the enhanced security that a private network provides over internet-based networks.
Utilising the flexibility of our Nexaccess product suite, provides:
- a fully configured solution which meets your specific requirements
- business-grade bandwidth scaling from 512Kbps up to 1Gbps
- support for a broad range of real-time applications including video, voice and sizeable data applications
- premium performance is at your fingertips which grows with your business.
Simple implementation
Even for the most technically-minded, we try to keep it simple. Nextep’s national ethernet/ATM core network provides a highly-reliable QoS enabled platform to support both the TLAN and IPVPN private network solutions. Our Nexconnect TLAN services – no matter their remoteness - are delivered as a fully bridged Ethernet connection. Or, alternatively, our IPVPN uses a router based system.
Fundamentally, we deliver a series of safe and secure network connections, which form a reliable and low-cost Wide Area Network (WAN). Installation times are surprisingly short, taking the pain out of upgrading to the Nexconnect system. And we also make it easy for end users, too, who usually find connection as easy as plugging in a phone cable.
Configuration options
To support the full range of applications on the network, several ‘Grade of Service’ options are configurable on each Nexaccess tail. For mission critical, real-time applications such as video or voice, ‘Corporate Grade’, 1:1 service configuration provides guaranteed end to end performance. For non-critical data transport, cost effective contended options can be configured from ‘Server’ to ‘Remote’ grades. As well as these grades of service options, the IPVPN solutions also allow IP QoS to be enabled on the network, with up to four classes of service prioritisation.
Nextep is recognised as a leader in helping service providers and businesses to capitalise on the commercial advantages of faster, more efficient ways of transacting and communicating. We're a wholesale service provider, rather than a 'direct-to-customer' retailer.
As what we do helps you gain a competitive, operational or productivity advantage then you could say that's an intelligent thing. And as almost all of the 'smarts' we supply help organizations to more effectively stay connected – with their customers, field staff, suppliers and other stakeholders – we use the phrase 'intelligent connections' to encapsulate what we're all about.
As a wholesale service provider, Nextep distributes its services through an extensive network of channel partners that includes leading Tier-2 carriers, ISP's and System Integrators. Our range of industry-leading solutions allows such partners to package Nextep offerings with their own solutions, to provide cutting edge telecoms-based services. Our origins can be traced back to 1999, when global technology giant NEC established a broadband applications unit that used NEC's advanced telecommunications solutions. They called this arm 'Nextep'.
Nextep via NEC owns and operates its own broadband network, and leverages on the R&D and innovations emerging from NEC's telecommunications centre in Melbourne, in addition to the knowledge capabilities of NEC's global thought leadership. This has positioned Nextep at the forefront of world's best practice broadband applications such as SIP and IMS, and enabled them to implement them quickly in a highly competitive environment.
Nextep provides reliable, cost-effective and highspeed broadband solutions to the Australian small, medium and corporate market segments, as well as to government agencies. If you want to get more specific about what we do, send us an email info@nextep.com.au
