Time Warner Telecom Introduces Affordable Ethernet Connectivity for Multi-Location Businesses



- New Integrated LAN Service Delivers Converged Ethernet Internet and Voice to Businesses With Multiple Locations Across Multiple Cities -

LITTLETON, Colo., June 6 -- Time Warner Telecom Inc. (NASDAQ:TWTC), a leading provider of managed voice and data networking solutions for businesses and government, today announced the availability of its new Ethernet network solution designed for business customers with multiple distributed locations. The service, named Integrated LAN, is designed to provide secure data, Internet and integrated voice services for businesses with multiple locations, within a city or across the country.

"Integrated LAN is the perfect solution for any business that needs 'plug and play' Ethernet connectivity across multiple locations," said Graham Taylor, senior vice president of Marketing for Time Warner Telecom. "Customers can choose from several options that meet their business needs including a data-only option or combine it with Time Warner Telecom's Internet and voice services for a converged solution. Integrated LAN offers customers the capability to tailor the service to meet the distinct communications requirements of their business."

This service provides affordable "branch-office" Ethernet connectivity and converged voice solutions ideally suited to multi-location businesses such as healthcare, retail, government and finance. For example, a retailer with 12 locations in one city and two distant locations will benefit from Integrated LAN by transmitting data traffic over a private network that is scaleable and secure behind a single firewall. All voice and data traffic between locations will remain on their "private" network and the Time Warner Telecom central office manages all traffic bound for the public switched telephone network and the Internet. Integrated LAN allows customers a common way to connect to all of their locations using a single network solution.

Integrated LAN delivers a converged multi-location data and voice solution at an exceptional value when compared to separate voice, Internet, data and traditional frame relay networks, providing dynamic bandwidth allocation, meaning that when not using voice services, the entire connection becomes available for data applications. This allows customers to use the bandwidth in the best interests of their business.
