Lease Line Service
Lease Line
A line is a permanent telephone connection between two points set up by a telecommunications common carrier, sometimes reffered to as a dedicated line. They can be used for telephone, data, or internet services. Generally, leased lines are recommended for businesses which rely on the net connection to conduct business on a daily basis and to connect geographically distant offices. A leased line is always active.
The fee for the connection is a fixed monthly rate. The primary factors affecting the monthly fee are distance between end points and the speed of the circuit. Because the connection doesn’t carry anybody else’s communications, the carrier can assure a given level of quality.
