Network solutions
The nuts and bolts of boosting performance

The digital networked economy is here - the power of communications, computing and network technologies. Succeeding means, in effect, getting the right information to the right person in the right place at the right time - the building blocks of innovation and competitive edge.

Integrated voice, data and video capabilities are a natural extension for BT’s telephony heritage.  BT Federal brings together the combination of world-class networks, experience in applications management, government systems integrator experience, with access to offices around the world working in global integrated communications and technology.

Voice over IP (VoIP) is emerging as a trusted alternative to traditional telephony and an important driver behind the decision by organizations to migrate to a converged network and yet while they offer a new level of communication, converged networks are complex to deliver and operate.

When it comes to building the voice network, BT has built some of the largest VoIP deployments in the world.  Integrated voice and data capabilities are inherent features of our global IP virtual private network (VPN) platform using multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) technology to deliver controlled Class of Service and top quality voice, audio, and data performance. 

BT's MPLS network is a private IP VPN, combining the flexible any-to-any communication found on public switched telephone network (PSTN) or Internet with the reliability, quality and security delivered via Private Line, Frame Relay or ATM services.

BT MPLS offers differentiated performance levels and prioritization of delay and non-delay sensitive traffic as well as voice and multimedia applications - all on a single network.  MPLS supports applications that cross geographic and organizational boundaries in the form of intranets, extranets and community of interest networks. Consider that BT MPLS provides coverage and support to over 70 countries from over 1000 Points of Presence when you require:

  • Any-to-any connectivity (i.e. meshed or partially-meshed network)
  • The ability to prioritize different applications
  • Different performance levels for different application types
  • A network that can expand and contract easily
  • LAN-to-LAN or WAN-to-WAN connectivity over private networks
  • Reduced networking costs and improved speed
  • A disaster recovery network for continuity of operations

And when voice communications must be on demand and secured, BT Satnet delivers. BT Satnet is a fully automatic satellite communication system that combines a small, vehicle-mountable dish and lightweight uplink hardware with a unique software scheduling package, which allows you to book variable (bandwidth and time) satellite transmission sessions.  BT Satnet delivers video, voice, data and the Internet where you need it within just five minutes of setup. BT Satnet is now being deployed to meet the needs of the military.  Read how BT Satnet can solve your communications challenges.

BT Satnet can be combined with wireless LAN networks to deliver voice, video and data to just about any place in the world, meeting your organization's demands for:

  • Rural or regional locations without infrastruture
  • Mobile communications deployment
  • Disaster recovery communications for operational continuity 
  • Deployable communications for responding to disaster relief
