Managed SD-WAN

Managed SD-WAN from Spectrum Enterprise delivers a complete, virtualized wide area network giving your organization visibility and control by enabling application-aware routing while reducing complexity, costs and management effort.

Managed SD-WAN overview

Wide area networks (WANs) in today’s enterprises are under pressure to accommodate a variety of initiatives including cloud computing, mobility, video collaboration, big data and more. Organizations are expected to make the right choice when adapting their WANs to improve control, flexibility and insight, as well as reduce complexity and optimize bandwidth.

Managed SD-WAN from Spectrum Enterprise takes network performance to the next level by delivering a completely managed solution that streamlines the entire SD-WAN implementation — from solution design and installation to portal-based management and ongoing support. This technology provides your enterprise with consistent access to the resources required to run your organization.

Product highlights

• Adapt to different workloads: Application-aware, intelligent routing steers and prioritizes traffic so that applications and different workloads get the performance, reliability and security necessary.
• Improve insight and control: A centralized approach to network management through an easy-to-use portal that provides control and insight into network performance, traffic and utilization. Access the tools needed to create or adjust network parameters based on the needs of each location.
• Reduce multivendor complexity and disparate technology: As a complete end-to-end solution — including infrastructure, network access, security and WAN service — Managed SD-WAN eliminates the complexity found in multivendor, multi-technology legacy networks.
• Count on diverse and dependable connectivity: Choose from a full range of high-speed connectivity options and transport types (e.g., fiber, coax and wireless).
• Benefit from local internet offload: Direct traffic to offload locally without the need to backhaul to the main internet port on your organization’s WAN.
• Migrate at your pace: Instead of a one-size-fits-all cutover, Managed SD-WAN enables you to migrate your WAN at your preferred pace to enhance an existing infrastructure or create an entirely new network by layering SD-WAN on top of internet access. 
• Add layers of security: Incorporate firewalls and unified threat management (UTM) with provider-managed, integrated security from edge to the cloud.
• Partner with trusted professionals: Enjoy a consultative approach to design and implementation while knowing that you have access to our trusted U.S.-based experts for 24/7/365 support.

Managed SD-WAN provides efficient management of your WAN

Managed SD-WAN is designed for any enterprise that depends on its WAN for reliable delivery of mission-critical resources and wants to free up internal IT staff to focus on other business-advancing initiatives. Our fully managed service will also appeal to organizations evolving their networks from legacy technologies and desire the expertise and support of a managed provider.
