ElastaLink Network Edge: The Next Chapter in Business Networking

Routing your data, efficiently and securely

If you prefer to retain or purchase your own routers and implement your own security policies, our Network Edge router can be deployed and deliver failover to a secondary WAN connection as well as link monitoring and management.

However, after seeing the impressive capabilities of our router and our systematic approach to your needs, many of our customers choose our full package. Beyond the features, our router offers unmatched affordability with our as-a-service pricing model. This approach eliminates the large up-front capital costs and additional maintenance fees. ElastaLink delivers a full system at just 40 percent of the average industry cost. We also include automated backup, management, monitoring and latest updates to ensure the utmost stability and security. Integrated battery and power management extends the life of our equipment beyond industry standards, and in case of hardware failure, we guarantee next-day delivery of a replacement router.

Features that set us apart from traditional business routers:

Reliability

ElastaLink network edge incorporates an integrated power supply and UPS, with optional backup power supply. The router prevents restarts due to power surges and, in case of an outage, can fail over to UPS or backup power supply in less than 30ms. The device performs a backup and a graceful shutdown to minimize damaging effects of power loss.

High availability

In case of Internet access loss, our Network Edge Router performs a seamless failover between multiple WAN connections, including a 3G or LTE wireless connection. Furthermore, tethering to a smartphone is available to ensure critical traffic is maintained while the cost of backup connectivity is minimized.

Security

Our Network Edge Router offers advanced, customizable firewall rules, with real-time monitoring and logging. Also, the router can perform actions based on time, connection state, peer-to-peer applications, content and Layer 7 deep packet inspection.

Deployment Flexibility

The unique enclosure of our Network Edge Router is designed to fit any deployment. It is optimized for desktop deployment right in your office. Alternatively, the device can be wall or rack mounted in your back office or data room.

Advanced Routing

Our Network Edge Router uniquely supports your business growth. It enables easy network expansion to new locations with support for advanced routing protocols such as OSPF, MPLS and iBGP. It also handles extensive traffic separation techniques like VLAN tagging, tunneling and bridging that enable you to meet complex security and regulatory requirements.

Traffic Shaping

Class of Service and Quality of Service with bandwidth prioritization and reservation of traffic allow for deployment of even the most demanding applications like Voice over IP, video conferencing, trading or traffic control.

802.11 b/g/n Connectivity

Our Network Edge Router offers advanced wireless capabilities with 802.11 b/g/n connectivity and a selection of extendable antennas to ensure sufficient signal strength in even the most demanding spaces.

Added Security

The solution we offer supports multiple SSIDs and uses multiple wireless authentication protocols for added security, ensuring that corporate traffic is not visible to unauthorized clients who may be using the wireless network.

Available statistics

Detailed statistics of connected clients, as well as a wireless scanner, packet sniffer and frequency usage can be provided to management for auditing purposes, simplifying any regulatory requirements.

Access Point

The wireless router can act as an access point, a hotspot or a Wi-Fi client to support all your business needs.

Together with certified trainers in both Canada and the US, ElastaLink provides several courses, leading to four levels of certification for your internal IT staff. Your staff can continue to manage your network locally, and leverage ElastaLink’s skills for more advanced projects.
