Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is Managed CPE?
Epsilon’s Managed Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) is a value-added service that enhances Epsilon’s data and network solutions, including SD WAN, Dedicated Internet Access (DIA), IP Transit IP VPN, Cloud Connect and Ethernet services like Last Mile Ethernet. This managed CPE device can be deployed either at customers’ premises or in an Epsilon connected data center. Its purpose is to provide a demarcation point for operations, routing, and reporting.
2. How does Managed CPE work?
Epsilon’s Managed CPE offers a comprehensive service that covers everything from design and procurement to deployment and ongoing maintenance of a fully managed network solution. It also offers additional benefits such as routing, robust monitoring, detailed reporting, and service management for both equipment and connectivity services. These services are available whether the equipment is located at customer premises or their data center sites.
3. Is Quality of Service (QoS) available for Internet-based Access?
Quality of Service (QoS) is not guaranteed when using the Internet as an access method. However, implementing QoS at the CPE can enhance the performance of upstream traffic from the customer LAN to the Internet. It’s important to note that since the Internet operates on a “best effort” basis, achieving end-to-end QoS over the Internet is not possible.
4. What is the minimum term commitment and pricing structure for the Managed CPE service?
The minimum term commitment for our Managed CPE service is 12 months. Additionally, our pricing is structured on a subscription-based model, offering flexibility and scalability to meet your specific needs.
5. Can the selection of CPE equipment be tailored to the needs of my business?
Yes, the model of the CPE equipment is dependent on your specific use case and bandwidth requirements. We source CPE equipment from established vendors, including but not limited to Cisco and Juniper, and work closely with you to ensure that the provided equipment aligns perfectly with your business needs.
