Resellers are uncovering a demand for network upgrades in their customer base. Retailers are looking for faster networks that can accommodate secure financial transactions and private sector organisations are looking for secure, private networks that allow staff to work from home, accessing data and making calls as if they were in the office. By winning these deals resellers have the potential to dramatically increase their recurring revenues and decrease churn.

MPLS VPN
MPLS Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a secure private network using ADSL, SDSL, Ethernet and private
circuits to provide a dual topology VPN, which is easy to manage and sell.
The product provides any-to-any IP Wide Area Network
(WAN) services and can be designed in full mesh or hub and
spoke topologies. It is designed for multi-sited enterprises and
those with remote workers that need to simply and securely
access the corporate internal network.
Partners get the benefit of being able to link customer sites and
employees via a private IP network which is easy to provision
and manage. Griffin’s MPLS VPN does not need expensive
routers and security software.
MPLS VPN gives Partners a high-performance network to run
demanding applications such as IP telephony, email, file transfer
and data sharing.
Griffin offers an unmanaged service, whereby Partners manage
their own hardware with the exception of leased lines,
where hardware is provided.
Griffin provides up to 8Mb/s IPStream Connect ADSL, up to 16Mb/s LLU ADSL, Annex M and Symmetric Assured LLU, up to 2Mb/s SDSL, up to 2Mb/s private circuits / leased lines and up to 1Gb/s Ethernet circuits. Wires only options are also available.
