Frontier Data Private Line

Dedicated Point-To-Point Connection
For Voice, Data and Video Transmission

If your business relies on high-speed, high-security Internet connectivity or critical, time-sensitive transmission of voice, data and video between two or more locations, a Frontier Private Line may be the connection for you. Private Line services provide constant, sustained bandwidth between your site and another destination that your business communicates with every day—a branch office or an Internet Service Provider POP (point of presence), for example.

Private Line Benefits

When you choose a Frontier Private Line for your mission-critical communications, you'll enjoy:

  • Security: A Private Line is not part of a shared network. Your voice, data or video travels on a dedicated line from your location to another destination.
  • Choice: Depending upon your specific bandwidth requirements, you can choose the Private Line connection that suits your needs:
    • DS0: Up to 64 Kbps
    • Fractional T-1 (DS1): Up to 768 Kbps
    • T-1 (DS1): Up to 1.5 Mbps
    • T-3 (DS3): Up to 45 Mbps
  • Videoconferencing/Distance Learning:
    With a T-1 or T-3 Private Line, you can conduct meetings and training sessions without having to incur costs for business travel.
  • Disaster Recovery: T-1 and T-3 Private Lines provide optional "survivability" features,¹ including an alternate central office in the event of a power outage or other unforeseen event.
  • Versatility: Your voice traffic may be heavier or lighter than your data traffic. T-1 and T-3 Private Lines allow you to determine how much sustained bandwidth to allocate for each.
  • Toll Savings: Calls between connected sites incur no toll or usage charges. Plus, if you connect to a long distance carrier's POP, your company saves on local access charges.
  • Payment Options: Frontier Private Lines come with flexible payment options including month-to-month and a "channelized T-1" option that allows you to pay only for the bandwidth you use.
