What is a leased line?

A leased line is a high-performance and permanently available Internet connection carrying voice, data and Internet traffic. Leased line is rented from telecommunications providers. Leased line delivers dedicated, guaranteed bandwidth and are supported by comprehensive Service-Level Agreements (SLA). They are also referred to as a private line, E1, T1, E3, T3, Dedicated Access or Point to point.

A leased line is for businesses that:

need high quality 24/7 access to the internet with an SLA

need to view real time bandwidth monitoring statistics
