Digital Subscriber Line

DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) is a proven technology that takes advantage of standard copper telephone lines to provide secure, reliable, high-speed Internet access. Unlike traditional dial-up connections such as analog modems or ISDN, DSL delivers continuous "always on" access.

DSL is available in a spectrum of speeds - some are best to accommodate rigorous business demands, while others are designed for home use . Whether for business or the home, DSL offers unsurpassed price/performance value compared to other online access options.

For Business:

• If you have a business dial-up connection now, you will save an average $75.00 for every 100 hours that you are connected to the Internet, if you change to Empire Networks/ DSL. This is due to the local per-minute connect fees that business phone customers pay the phone company.
• All of your staff will be able to access the Internet at the same time, saving many hours of waiting for their turn.
• You will be able to eliminate extra phone lines that you are paying your phone company, just to connect to the Internet. This alone pays for your Empire Networks/DSL account.
• You and your staff will have 24 hour access directly to your office computers from home using Direct-Connect software. Originally, companies seeking high-speed connectivity looked to T1 lines as a solution. However, these dedicated lines still cost as much as $2,000 a month. Now, Empire Networks/DSL provides continuous T-1 level performance at a fraction of typical T1 costs.

DSL is available in States listed on the Empire Networks Home Page. Empire Networks is moving rapidly to deploy its services across the entire U.S.
