Network Redundancy
Access to the Internet is critical today for organizations of all shapes and sizes. A network outage can quickly create huge costs in lost business and lost productivity. Other solutions on the market, including BGP routing, are difficult to setup and are not available for lower cost broadband backup solutions. Additionally, BGP also does not include the ability to bond WAN links for accelerated web-downloads.

Unique ActiveDNS Technology
The LINKaXcel includes the ability to balance server traffic across multiple ISP links in order to improve connectivity. The ActiveDNS service is a fully implemented DNS server with dynamic intelligence to re-direct traffic on-the-fly to the appropriate network connection.

Efficient Use Of Secondary Links
The LINKaXcel product not only ensures automated failover of network connectivity in the event of an ISP outage, but it also can utilize the backup connection for lower priority traffic, like accelerated web downloads and email connectivity, thus making efficient use of the backup link and speeding up end-user connectivity.
