BUSINESS: Case Studies

RadioFrame® Networks

Challenge

With expanding market opportunities in Europe, RadioFrame Networks needed to collaborate effectively with its international partners. IT management at RadioFrame identified network reliability and performance as business-critical requirements, and recognized that multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) service offered advantages over point-to-point technology. As they evaluated vendors, other vital criteria were the ability to provide MPLS internationally and handle global implementations.

Solution

RadioFrame chose the MPLS-based Qwest iQ Networking® Private Port service. Qwest leveraged its network of global partners and worked with British Telecom (BT) to complete the installation at the first U.K. site.

Benefits and Results

  • Qwest’s international partnerships were business-critical as RadioFrame entered a key growth market
  • With excellent value and the ability to implement in a timely manner, Qwest helped RadioFrame achieve return on investment (ROI) soon after the installation
  • Having a single point-of-contact for billing and technical support saves time and costs for RadioFrame
  • Network scalability and expanding Qwest capabilities easily support RadioFrame’s rapid growth
  • Qwest offers wide-ranging expertise for immediate problem-solving and long-term strategic planning
