SprintLink Frame Relay: Details
SprintLink Frame RelayTM combines the security and reliability of frame relay with the survivability and scalability of a global Tier 1 IP backbone. The result is secure, high-performance transport, shuttling traditional frame relay packets over SprintLink — the Sprint Global Tier 1 IP network — rather than a statically switched core such as ATM.
Using Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol, Version 3 (L2TPv3) technology, SprintLink Frame Relay offers cost-effective connectivity designed to maximize performance and reduce network complexity.
With SprintLink Frame Relay, you can:
- Extend scalable, reliable global connectivity enterprise-wide
- Choose from a wide range of port speeds for exactly the performance you need
- Stay on top of performance with flexible web-based reporting
- Leverage optional Sprint Managed Network ServicesTM, including system integration and performance management
