Connectivity

Overview

Reliable connectivity now plays a critical role in operational continuity, application performance, collaboration, cloud access, security, and day-to-day business operations.

As organizations support distributed environments, cloud applications, remote users, and increasing network demands, evaluating connectivity strategies becomes more important and more complex.

AB Advisory Dynamics helps organizations evaluate connectivity solutions more objectively through vendor-neutral guidance, broader market visibility, and access to trusted providers across SD-WAN, SASE, managed connectivity, and network infrastructure environments. We help align connectivity decisions with operational performance, resilience, scalability, and long-term business priorities.

INTERACTIVE TECHNOLOGY ASSESSMENTS

Broadband

A high speed connection to the internet

DIA (Dedicated Internet Access)

Guarantees users always receive their purchased bandwidth, as opposed to shared connections where the bandwidth purchased represents the maximum speed

MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching)

A routing technique designed to speed up and shape traffic flows across enterprise wide area and service provider networks

VPLS (Virtual Private LAN Service)

A VPN (virtual private network) that connects geographically dispersed local area network sites across an MPLS backbone

Private Line

A private data connection securely connecting two or more locations with high data speeds, without traversing the public internet

Layer 2

The network layer used to transfer data between adjacent network nodes in a wide area network or between nodes on the same local area network

Fixed Wireless

Wireless devices or systems in fixed locations such as homes and offices

Satellite

Transmission of data via orbiting satellites

SD-WAN/SASE

SD-WAN simplifies WAN management, improves performance, and reduces costs. SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) integrates networking and security, crucial for cloud environments, with its primary benefit being enhanced security.
