A podcast with Christopher Lodge, President and COO of United Fiber & Data (UFD) www.ufd.com and Gary Audin Your hear about redundancy. It is live and backup equipment, service, or carrier. What if the live and backup are hit by a common fire, hurricane, cable cut, malicious behavior, or flood. Then the redundancy does not work. You need diversity, physical diversity. In networks that means two transmission paths that are separated by miles not feet. Consider hurricane Sandy. What about the burned out cables sharing the Baltimore train tunnel. The primary and alternate transmission paths shared the same physical corridor and went down together. Christopher Lodge, President and COO of United Fiber& Data (UFD) www.ufd.com and Gary Audin discuss the requirement for diversified network routing to deliver business continuity in this podcast recorded at the INCOMPAS conference. UFD offers physically diverse transmission paths in the Northeast corridor and Manhattan to enterprises, VARs, and carriers. Christopher explains how geographic diversity and good planning can also deliver faster service restoration when a failure occurs. United Fiber & Data (UFD) www.ufd.com provides a superior alternative for fiber networking and broadband solutions. As a privately owned and operated network, it is strategically positioned west of the North East Corridor's traditional route. UFD is diverse to single points of failure between New York City and Northern Virginia. Their data centers offer a cost-effective delivery of ISP bandwidth and carrier interconnects for their customers. UFD’s hands-on Professional Services Group offers a complete suite of solutions that has the backing of an owner-operated, highly redundant, and secure infrastructure.  

Plantronics Manager Pro v3.8 helps the channel build sales in SaaS era

Plantronics manufactures a family of products that will become more critical than ever as UC becomes UCaaS: end points. For decades the basic model of many companies in the channel focused on installing and selling the big chassis, often leaving smaller components such as end points as a side sale or an add on. But as the channel embraces a recurring income model, the end point has become central to the end user experience, and therefore the success of the agreement that produces the recurring income. Even with excellent underlying cloud services in place, the wrong end points can create a poor experience triggering customer defections. The Plantronics Manager Pro is a software subscription service that customers and partners can use to manage audio communications devices. Now, IT and contact center managers can gain insights from voice interactions, turning the headset into a data aggregation tool by using analytics to improve collaboration and customer service at the point of interaction. In this podcast Chris Thompson, Vice President of Enterprise Product Marketing discusses with Telecom Reseller's Doug Green how Plantronics is helping the channel use this new tool to craft better solutions for their customers, and how ManagerPro helps IT teams and actual final end users.

By Gary Audin You want fiber to your building and/or data center. Most of the time that direct fiber connection, especially for 1 to 100 Gbps, is not available in your area. But the CIO wants a fiber connection for business continuity, security, reliability, as well as network diversity. You can select to buy a dark fiber connection, lease one, or connect to a lighted fiber. You want a provider that offers all three types so you can migrate into any of the three connection types. Jim Hintze, SVP of sales at FiberLight www.fiberlight.com and Gary Audin discuss accessing fiber networks in this podcast recorded at the INCOMPAS conference. FiberLight expects to connect 10,000 buildings this year offering services to VARs and enterprises. FiberLight owns and manages over 1.6 million fiber miles in over 44 metro areas across the United States. It also maintains over 17,000 backbone access points, 1,700 on-net locations, and presence in over 100 data centers across the country. “Demanding U.S. government agencies and industries rely on FiberLight for best-in-class customer service and network reliability and security,” comments Jim Hintze. “Our evolving dark fiber reach affords carriers, enterprise and government customers that rely on critical high-bandwidth applications to gain greater access to cloud-based services.”

Arguments for migrating from TDM to IP platforms have traditionally contained the value added IP features and functions. This is worth pursuing but does not automatically pay for itself. One of the emerging advantages is the ability to respond to market changes and customer requirements in nearly real time. Carriers can then compete with OTTs and social networks with quality services. How this can work and the issues involved are part of the discussion between Patrick Joggerst, SVP Sales and Marketing at Genband www.genband.com in this podcast recorded with Gary Audin at the Perspectives 16 conference hosted by Genband. Patrick covers the Genband approach to network and enterprise transformation. He explores the capabilities of Kandy with open APIs and SDKs that allow rapid application deployment which can significantly accelerate the time-to-market for services.
