MURCOM offers more reliable bandwidth with our fully redundant core network.  Dual Tier-1 Carriers provide MURCOM with a throughput speed of 150MBps using OC-3 & DS-3 Direct Internet Connections.  Our system implements dual, Carrier Class, Cisco 7507s.  Each have redundant CPUs and redundant Power Supplies.  One 7507 has a Level3/WilTel connection, the other has a Time Warner/Xspedius connection.  Each router's power supply is connected to a separate UPS.  Each UPS is connected to a separate 20AMP electrical circuit.  Each electrical circuit is connected to the Emergency Power Generator System.  Each router is connected to our Core rate limiting Extreme Networks switch.  The Extreme Networks Switch has redundant Power Supplies.  Each power supply is connected to separate, redundant, UPS, and generator like the Ciscos.  The dual routers are configured to operate as a single virtual router with full redundancy.  Full BGP routing is enabled.  If one of the routers fail, the other will take full control.  If one of the Internet connections fail, the other Internet connection will take over.  The system also will find and use the quickest Internet path.  No local loops and direct fiber optic backbone connections of only a few hundred feet enable MURCOM's core network to be one of the most reliable redundant Internet network systems available in the Tulsa area or the entire State of Oklahoma.
