Connectivity
Multi-location businesses run on circuits nobody wants to think about, until a carrier retirement letter arrives. We help compare available connectivity services and coordinate the transition. Your carrier must confirm service availability, installation timing and any retirement deadline for each location.
What to compare before signing a circuit order
- Service at each addressGet written availability, installation scope, construction costs, lead times, and the demarcation point. A coverage map does not establish serviceability.
- Resilience you can testCompare upload capacity, latency, committed bandwidth, service-level terms, backup power, and carrier or route diversity. Test failover with the applications you actually run.
- The full contract costAsk when billing starts, what happens if installation slips, who pays construction, how service credits work, and whether moving or closing a site triggers termination charges.

Common questions
What is connectivity sourcing?
Connectivity sourcing is the process of finding, comparing, and contracting network services (internet access, SD-WAN, wireless backup) for a business. Instead of calling carriers one by one, a broker benchmarks options across the supplier market and negotiates on your behalf. You describe what is broken. The broker turns that into requirements, compares suppliers on merit, and manages the paperwork through installation.
How does sourcing connectivity through CHNLSYNC work?
Sourcing connectivity through CHNLSYNC starts with your locations, requirements, current contracts and target dates. A human broker reviews available options and the recommendation. Ask which suppliers were considered, how compensation works, and what delivery and renewal coordination is included. Confirm service availability and commitments in the selected supplier’s written proposal.
What happens when a carrier retirement letter arrives?
Read the notice to identify the affected account, address, service and stated dates, then confirm its meaning with the carrier. A network-retirement notice, service-discontinuance notice and address-level replacement availability are different things. Inventory what each line serves and involve the responsible equipment or monitoring provider before selecting a replacement.
Can we change connectivity providers before our contract ends?
Changing connectivity providers before a contract ends is often possible, but timing matters. Many agreements renew automatically unless notice is given inside a set window. The first step is mapping renewal dates and termination terms across your sites. CHNLSYNC handles multi-site contract consolidation and renewals, timing replacement service so new circuits are live before old agreements lapse.
What does CHNLSYNC's help cost?
CHNLSYNC charges no buyer advisory fee for its supplier-paid brokerage service. You still pay the supplier for the service, and installation, equipment or third-party work may carry separate charges. Ask for the scope, full costs and compensation explanation in writing. A human broker reviews supplier recommendations before they reach you.
