DS3Killer.com is going head to head with the CLECs offering DS3 service by offering 100Mbps fiber bandwidth for less than the cost of a 45Mbps DS3.

PR Log (Press Release) – Mar 12, 2010 DS3Killer.com is going head to head with the CLECs offering DS3 service by offering 100Mbps fiber bandwidth for less than the cost of a 45Mbps DS3. However, according to DS3Killer it is not about the price.

“Even though we offer double the bandwidth for half the price, it is the technology used which is most important differentiator from the traditional DS3 service. By using our fiber strands to plug the customer straight into our network and extensive backbone, we bypass all that equipment normally required at the local CLEC facilities. Not only are there less points of failure this way, the actual network statistics like latency improve greatly”.

To add to the offering, DS3Killer is able (through their relationship with AboveNet) to offer businesses a free fiber build out if they are close enough to the network. The supported service areas include Service areas include New York-New Jersey, Boston, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Austin, Houston, Phoenix, Los Angeles, San Francisco Bay Area, Seattle and the United Kingdom

This Metro IP solution enables organizations to avoid the typical “last mile” bottleneck of the local loop by eliminating dependence on outdated local loop architectures, allowing them to focus on core business requirements. And, by providing secure, private access to the Internet, Metro IP allows companies to avoid outdated bandwidth-limited solutions such as SONET, a service that lacks future-proof scalability.
