Bonded DSL
Small and growing businesses have a new connectivity option available only from XMission: Bonded DSL. Bonded DSL works best for businesses that don’t want to pay for a dedicated connection, but still require a connection faster than DSL.
For a limited time, XMission will accept up to twenty customers for a new pilot program to test this affordable, flexible service.
Key features include:
- Low hardware costs
- Businesses purchase two inexpensive DSL lines and combine their speeds into a single connection using a low-cost appliance developed by PipeDream Networks.
- Easy to provision
- This rack-mountable, noiseless appliance allows administrators to easily provision or remove lines from the appliance via a web-interface.
- High speeds without high cost
- Your business can combine DSL speeds for a total of up to 14 Mbps. Each pair of bonded connections includes 500 GB of monthly transfer. Eventually, XMission will offer the option to bond up to four DSL lines.
Consider this cost comparison:
| Speed | XMission charge | Qwest charge | Hardware charges | Additional lines | One-time setup |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3 Mbps down/1.7 Mbps up | $89/month | $75/month or $85/month for standalone | $750 one-time (discounted from $1,000 for pilot program) | $54/month + additional charges | $150 (waived for pilot program) |
| 6-14 Mbps down/ 1.7 Mbps up | $113/month | $112.50/month or $122.50/month for standalone | $750 one-time (discounted from $1,000 for pilot program) | $74/month + additional charges | $150 (waived for pilot program) |
| Speed | Average Cost | Average Setup Fees | Hardware costs |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.5 Mbps | $385/month for bandwidth and loop | $500 one-time | $1800 for 1800 series or higher |
| Speed | Average Cost | Average Setup Fees |
|---|---|---|
| Starting at 5 Mbps | $1400/month | $1100 one-time |
Please note: unlike T1 and Optical Ethernet, Bonded DSL uses consumer-grade bandwidth and does not include a Service Level Agreement (SLA).
