New Edge Networks

New Edge Networks is building a network of direct connectionsto various back-office online solutions providers including payment processors,payroll services, health benefits management companies, IT help desks, kiosks,digital video display or monitoring services and ATM network providers. By usingdirect connections to pre-determined suppliers, retailers avoid installing andpaying for separate dedicated connections to the same firms, or through thosefirms’ headquarters where most companies aggregate and send traffic to theirsuppliers.
