Northern Nigeria network backbone redundancy Nigeria's leading provider of carrier services, Phase3 Telecom, has made a significant improvement to its Lagos-Northern Nigeria network with the provision of backbone redundancy on the route.
The firm, West Africa's only electricity grid aerial optic fiber carrier said with the provision of the backbone redundancy, quality of service to its clients would now be significantly enhanced as an alternate route for all traffic on its network between Lagos and Abuja had been provisioned.
According to Chief Operating Officer, Phase3 Telecom, Mr. Olusola Teniola, the achievement of the backbone redundancy was the fulfilment of a vision of the firm to ensure that its network would always be available to users in the event of any eventuality.
"In line with our determination to continually improve our services to our customers (IP and Clear channel), this backbone redundancy, effectively provides our clients currently enjoying peering, transit and MPLS VPN solutions and services from Lagos, a more reliable solution for their traffic, " he said.
He added that the new system now has a provision in which load has been configured to equally balance at peak periods, thereby eliminating clogs, saturation and bottlenecks. In addition, he explained that the system allows traffic load to choose the least saturated path during off peak periods and failover entirely in the event of discontinuity on any of the two routes.
"With this new arrangement, essentially our uptime has been greatly increased and we will see a 99.999 per cent efficiency leap in service delivery for all our IP clients," Teniola added.
