Product Feature and Capability Descriptions

Businesses are looking for ways to lower monthly bandwidth costs for their Internet connectivity. ShieldLink allows you to replace expensive dedicated circuits with low-cost broadband connections (cable, DSL, wireless, etc). Alternatively, if you need additional bandwidth, rather than upgrading to an expensive dedicated circuit, can simply add a low-cost broadband connection.

Businesses also need greater Internet reliability for their employees, customers and business partners. If their Internet connection goes down, employees loose productivity, and customers can't conduct business with them.

ShieldLink manages traffic going to and from a business over the Internet over two or more Internet connections of any type. Continually checking all connections for performance and uptime, if a connection problem occurs, Ensuring Internet failover and Internet load balancing, ShieldLink directs all traffic to the working connection.

During an Internet outage, the IT department typically scrambles to find and fix the problem. With ShieldLink, when a WAN link failure occurs, the IT department only knows about it because ShieldLink sends them a notification – and they don't have to do anything about it, as ShieldLink already addressed the problem.
