IP MAN

Focus your resources on running your business rather than your network with Telstra’s IP Metropolitan Area Network (IP MAN).

Telstra IP MAN is a high-speed, flexible, Ethernet on fibre service designed to improve network performance and business productivity. Using the scale, reach and reliability of the Telstra Next IP® network, IP MAN provides any-to-any connectivity in and between metropolitan areas - simply and cost-efficiently. For those who only want point-to-point connectivity inside a metropolitan area, Telstra Ethernet MAN will be more suitable.

With Telstra IP MAN, you can also create your own advanced virtual private network by using other compatible Telstra IP solutions and a range of permanent data and dial-up products.

Flexibility to suit your business needs
Gear your access capacity to suit the importance of each site – from 2Mbps to 4Gbps. Meanwhile, Feature Network Change lets you easily scale your bandwidth to help meet peaks in traffic.

Prioritise traffic to improve productivity and user experience
Six levels of Class of Service (CoS) can improve the performance of time-sensitive applications like IP voice and video, as well as other mission-critical applications.

Monitor the network to improve performance
Easily manage the performance of your network using the reporting functionality of Network Generation Data Reporting (NGDR), giving you more time to focus on your business.

Enhance business resilience
Build resilience to suit your sites with options ranging from Single Uplink, Dual Access or Fully Redundant IP MAN. The optional IP Fast Reroute feature also provides rapid failover for critical applications to help reduce downtime.

Cost-efficiency
Why suffer the cost and complications of maintaining your own network when you can enjoy excellent connectivity with a cost-effective operating expense?
