Networks for education
MLL Telecom has provided many schools and Universities a greater level of connectivity as well as saving costs through network sharing with Local Authorities. Increased use of virtual learning platforms has given teachers and students the chance to benefit from an online environment but traffic levels have grown accordingly. MLL Telecom can meet these new demands placed on your acedemic networks along with assuring the privacy you'd expect for your schools networks.
Local loop unbundling (LLU)
We can offer services based on DSL using Local loop unbundling (LLU) or we can deploy lower cost wireless services, because we have our own wireless spectrum across the UK we do not have the wait for the spectrum allocation from Ofcom. We've currently got over 5,000 circuits and connections across the country.
From our headquarters in Marlow, we keep a close eye on all our networks. Our dedicated Network Operation Centre is manned around the clock by engineers who can start to fix faults as soon as they notice them. In 90% of cases, that happens before the customer realises anything needs fixing.
In-house network planning and design
Alongside our Network Operations Centre we have network planners and designers who offer everything from site acquisition to line of sight surveys, ensuring that the lifetime design of all our networks is optimised (not just the initial stages).
For every link we deploy, we provide a defined SLA, along with a more in-depth management report so our customers can make use of the information. This means they'll be able to see how their network is measuring up against the SLA itself.
Flexible pricing models
Our pricing structure is as flexible as our networks. Customers aren't stuck with rental or capex models: we will meet their budget profile by suggesting a combination of the two if that's suitable.
We currently provide networks for East Sussex Schools, University of East Anglia, Cardiff University, Bangor University, University of Glamorgan and Merthyr Tydfil College.
Some of the services we can offer educational establishments include:
- Managed wide area networks
- Wireless point-to-point ethernet links
- Wireless point-to-multipoint ethernet links
- Managed IP equipment, including switches and routers
