Optical Wave Service Level Agreement

Technical Standards of Performance

Availability 99.99%

Service Availability

Availability Performance is the percentage of time within a specified time interval during which the Frame Loss Ratio Performance is small. A circuit is considered unavailable when there is a complete loss of use.

SLA coverage

Depending on the technology, US Signal handles SLA’s based on several different network/technology domains.

  • Core Domain i.e.(Between Core POP’s across MPLS backbone)
  • Edge Domain i.e. (Metro Ethernet Networks)
  • Access Domain i.e. (Last Mile Access)

The Availability metric is measured and provided in the Core and Edge Domains. SLA’s do not extend to the Access Domain.
