Milton Town School District

  Full Version

Challenges:

  • Bandwidth in a school district is always in high demand
  • Maximize bandwidth for the district across multiple sites
  • Redundancy needs to be implemented to ensure uptime for users and services

Solution:

  • Elfiq LB-800E Link Balancer
  • Two high-speed cable modem ISP links were combined with a 2x bonded T1
  • Elfiq professional services were retained for delivery of the project

Benefits:

  • Multiple carriers using multiple technologies ensure uptime in case of ISP failure
  • Two high-speed cable modems provide the increased throughput for users
  • All sites benefit from the aggregated Internet carriers
  • Budgetary impact is minimal as low-cost asymmetrical cable modems have been deployed
     
"We had tried other Link/WAN balancing solutions; however, there were always problems. The best thing that I can say about Elfiq is: It just works! Traffic comes in and goes out just like there was only one ISP. It gives me great peace of mind to know that I have redundancy and don't have to worry about my internet service going down."
