A XO Communications Case Study
SOS International Ltd, a defense and aerospace consulting and research firm with offices in New York City and Reston, needed a reliable, cost-effective last-mile Internet connection to replace T1 lines that failed during power outages and to support growing audio/video streaming needs while meeting zoning and budget constraints. After evaluating options, SOS International Ltd chose XO Communications’ fixed wireless Dedicated Internet Access (100 Mbps Wireless Ethernet) as the preferred solution.
XO Communications delivered a 100 Mbps fixed wireless Ethernet connection with expert installation—hiding the antenna to meet zoning rules and completing work in about a week—providing SOS International Ltd with more bandwidth (meeting projected 60–70 Mbps needs), lower costs, and greater reliability (staying connected through power outages, with only a planned XO upgrade causing downtime). The upgrade improved performance for sensitive client communications and strengthened the customer’s business relationship with XO Communications.
