Welcome to Global Crossing's IP Network Performance. It is here that you will be able to view key indicators that provide a snapshot of the current performance of our global IP network. The tool's capabilities include real time monitoring statistics, (24x7) specifically for network latency and packet loss. Both latency and packet loss are significant measures of an Internet Service Provider's backbone performance, which refers to the overall quality of a provider's network. To clearly demonstrate the validity of its claims of speed and throughput, Global Crossing provides this publicly accessible web site where customers can see for themselves the performance statistics.
