High-Speed Connections: Burstable Connections






Flexible, Affordable Network Access

Many organizations find that their Internet usage varies widely by season or even by month. They want the flexibility to use additional bandwidth when needed and pay for it only in the months when used. The answer is Merit's Burstable Network Access.
  • Immediate Access to Higher Bandwidth

    With Merit's Burstable Network Access, the Member selects a basic bandwidth level and installs an access circuit with higher capacity. Then the Member has the ability to immediately access higher bandwidths for special events or changing usage patterns, up to the maximum capacity of the circuit.

  • Cost Effective

    The Member pays for the basic bandwidth level and is only charged for the additional bandwidth in those months when usage spikes occur.

  • Easily Accommodate Special Projects, Seasonal Usage

    Merit's Burstable Network Access is perfect for organizations who only need high bandwidths occasionally for special projects or whose usage is seasonal in nature.
