SD-WAN and MPLS

Intelligent, software-defined connectivity that adapts to your traffic, your sites, and your priorities in real time.

Modern WAN for Enterprise Scale

Traditional MPLS networks were built for a world where applications lived in the data center. Today, your traffic goes everywhere: SaaS platforms, cloud providers, branch offices, remote workers. Axel Networks delivers SD-WAN and MPLS solutions that match how your business actually runs.

Our SD-WAN platform sits over your existing circuits, or over new ones we provide, and makes intelligent forwarding decisions based on application type, link quality, and policy. Your Microsoft Teams calls take the best available path. Your backup traffic stays off the primary link. And your team manages everything from a single dashboard.

Why Not Just MPLS?

MPLS remains the right choice for environments that require guaranteed quality of service across a private backbone. We still offer it. But for most enterprises with multiple cloud applications and geographically distributed staff, SD-WAN over broadband or DIA delivers comparable reliability at significantly lower cost and far greater flexibility.

Many of our clients run a hybrid model: MPLS for site-to-site and critical traffic, SD-WAN for direct internet breakout and cloud acceleration. We design the right mix for your needs.

Centralized Policy Management

All traffic steering rules, QoS policies, firewall zones, and application profiles are managed from a single orchestration platform. Pushing a policy change to 50 locations takes seconds, not tickets.

Intelligent Path Selection

Traffic is steered in real time based on latency, jitter, packet loss, and application priority policy.

Application-Aware QoS

Voice, video, and critical SaaS applications receive guaranteed priority over bulk or background traffic.

Multi-Site Orchestration

Manage policies, segments, and topology for all sites from a single cloud-hosted management plane.

Encrypted Overlay

All inter-site traffic is encrypted with AES-256 tunnels regardless of the underlying transport type.

MPLS Private Core

For sites requiring guaranteed private transport, our MPLS backbone delivers QoS with end-to-end SLA.

Zero-Touch Provisioning

New sites go live with pre-staged appliances. Plug in, connect, and the site comes up automatically.
