WAN connectivity

          Wide Area Networks






          A Wide Area Network (WAN) connects multiple sites to create an organisation’s own virtual secure

          private network. A WAN is made up of some or all of the locations from which you operate and can
          stretch to all corners of the globe.



          The performance of this network is critical to ensure your business runs smoothly, your people stay

          productive and your data is secure. You can’t afford lengthy periods of downtime, outages or poor
          connectivity. Security, resilience, capacity speed and reliability are all essential to enable multiple

          network services to operate simultaneously.



          Ensuring your WAN is operating at peak performance is a must, but that doesn’t mean you should be
          paying above the market rate or putting up with a sub-standard customer service. The challenge is to

          achieve the right balance - reliable network performance and value for money.


          At Convergence, we deliver WAN differently. As a leading aggregator and primary partner to each of

          the major networks, we receive preferential service and responsiveness from tier 1 suppliers. This also

          means we can mix and match seamlessly between carriers to get the best combination of price,

          connectivity, capacity and speed.
