1. All Covered AccessTM
High Speed Internet Access for Small Business
Do you wish you could get high-speed, economical Internet access?
Now, you can with All Covered Access.
All Bases Covered has established alliances with best-of-breed broadband service providers to bring high-
speed Internet access services into your network environment. ABC’s portfolio of broadband partners is
made up of industry leaders with proven track records in providing superior service and support. Using
state-of-the-art technology, broadband connectivity is designed for businesses that want to optimize their
Internet access by reducing the costs and the headaches of slow dial-up lines or low bandwidth connections.
All Covered Access partners bring you and your business the finest high speed, always-on Internet
connectivity available.
Of the wide array of Internet access options, DSL is the primary choice for small business. DSL is a
broadband, high-speed, digital Internet connection wired directly to your business using existing copper
telephone lines. DSL offers the speed you need, the data security you want and the reliability your business
demands. All Covered Access creates a seamless communication conduit between your business, your
business partners and your customers. Additional connectivity options, such as ISDN, T1 and T3, are also
available through the ABC All Covered Access partners.
All Covered Access Benefits using DSL
• Allows users to be on the phone and the Internet simultaneously, unlike dial-up technology.
• Eliminates dial-up requirement and disconnected lines with “Always On” technology.
• Provides an enabling technology for Internet-based e-commerce applications.
• Supports high-speed uploads/downloads.
• Improves business relationships with real-time communication between remote offices, partners and
customers.
• Offers speeds ranging from 144Kbps to 1.5 Mbps.
• Maximizes employee productivity.
• Utilizes reliable, existing copper telephone lines.
Speed of DSL
DSL technology offers speeds up to 50 times faster than analog modem, dial-up Internet access by allowing
you to download software, share large files, browse the Internet or conduct Internet transactions with
minimal delay and increased productivity.
Productivity of DSL
DSL service provides symmetrical access that means the same fast transmission rates are available for both
sending and receiving data. Symmetric DSL is a proven, flexible and reliable technology allowing more
effective use of the latest Internet and data applications. Users can be on the phone and the Internet at the
same time because DSL technology allows simultaneous voice and data communications. DSL is “always-
on” so there is no need to dial every time the Internet is accessed. Plus there are fewer interruptions with
dropped connectivity during Internet browsing or downloading.
And because DSL utilizes traditional copper telephone wires, Internet connectivity is simple and reliable.
