NGA Business Premium (Enhanced Bitstream 4)

NGA Business Premium includes a number of individual components that collectively provide multi-class business grade access connectivity between you and customers. Dedicated point-to-point access to our congestion-free UFB network means bandwidth is always there when you need it. This service provides an access Ethernet private line (Access-EPL) that allows up to 4094 VLANs to be passed transparently from a customer’s premises to your network. These VLANS allow simple to complex wide area networks to be configured and managed efficiently. How? By addressing issues such as scalability, security and network management.

You can configure NGA Business Premium to be single class (where all traffic is treated as high traffic class) or multi-class (which supports both high and low traffic classes):

• High traffic class is premium grade, high-performing bandwidth intended to be used by inelastic applications that have significant latency constraints, such as VoIP. This class can be selected or modified per service request from a pre-set range of values.
• Low traffic class provides a high-peak speed bandwidth and is intended to be used by elastic Internet applications that are not latency or jitter sensitive, such as browsing and email.

You can now choose a Glass-only termination option, ie NGA Business Premium Glass. NGA Business Premium Glass is preferable at sites with environmental constraints such as limited space or access to power. Glass-only means the service is delivered to an SCA connector or an ITP, which is simply plugged into the customer’s CPE via a compatible interface, usually a Small Form Pluggable (SFP).*

*A suitable patch cord from the ITP/SCA to the CPE needs to be provided by the customer.

NGA BUSINESS PREMIUM VS HSNS PREMIUM

NGA Business Premium is a lifecycle replacement for HSNS Premium.

Both NGA Business Premium and HSNS Premium have a NID (NGA Business Premium)/MCR (HSNS Premium) and Glass-only (both products) option to enable you to choose the best termination type for your customers.
