Microsoft communications infrastructure products are key components of many organizations’ information technology strategies and the reliability of the services delivered by these products is mission-critical. A common point of failure in these environments is reliance on a single Internet link to communicate with services outside the organizations’ networks such as email, voice over IP, instant messaging and more.
Elfiq Link Balancers units are a key component in completing Microsoft communications solutions by ensuring that communications and services are available. The link balancer provides the ability to manage multiple Internet/WAN connections, resulting in a redundant communication infrastructure and removing the usual single point of failure of having only one iIternet connection.
An additional benefit is that bandwidth addition is very quick and transparent, so when the number of users increases and performance begins to degrade, the Elfiq unit will accommodate any IP communications link the organization acquires. Typical links include DSL, cablemodems, T1, T3, satellite, 3G mobile, fibre, and microwave.
For larger organizations, Elfiq enables maximum availability through the use of its SitePathMTPX link resilience technology and it’s GeoLink geographic balancing technology, ensuring connectivity across multiple physical sites. |
