Benefits
Ensuring quality and performance

Our facilities-based network has fully mirrored, 24 x 7 Network Operations Centers (NOCs) in three different time zones. We ensure diversity by minimizing network spurs and collapsed intercity rings; building diverse laterals and offering physical, electrical, and dual-gateway diversity options. Your high bandwidth, survivable applications rely on the diversity of the underlying physical network. Level 3 offers you a broad portfolio of physical transport routes. For example, Level 3 is one of the few global network operators that offers three or more physically distinct routes in and out of 72 North American cities, and 4, 5 or 6 routes out of some major markets. 

Investing in growth and network evolution

Significant, ongoing investments in network scale make Level 3 a partner that can support your growth. In fact, we expect to double our backbone capacity every two years to support growth across a range of services.

Committing to your success

Your dedicated team of network architects is the same group responsible for designing the Level 3 Network. Whether you’re launching a NexGen data service or expanding an MPLS-based service internationally, we’re committed to collaborative network design.
