1.0WorldLink Background

WorldLink is the largest Internet and Network Service Provider in Nepal and one of the most prominent IT companies with over 500 direct and indirect employees all over Nepal. Founded in September 1995 with the aim of providing Internet and IT services by its present Chairman and Managing Director, Dileep Agrawal, WorldLink started off by providing store-and-forward e-mail services over a dial-up link to the Internet in the US.

In March 1997, WorldLink started providing full Internet access over a dedicated leased-line to the Internet backbone in the US through Teleglobe International. From September 1999 till June 2008, WorldLink has been connecting to the Internet over a direct satellite uplink through its own VSAT terminals, thereby completely bypassing Nepal Telecommunications Corporation, the local PTT, however now Worldlink owns International Private Leased Circuit (IPLC) network over undersea fiber to Singapore, UK and India and peers directly with Singtel, Airtel and PCCW and with TATA is under process. Worldlink currently solely own 6xSTM-1 capacities for Internet B/W, which is the largest among all the private operators and 2nd, largest in Nepal after Nepal Telecom. Worldink has capacity of STM-16 cross border connectivity with Airtel today and also with TATA soon.

Over the past 15 years, WorldLink has grown from a small business to a strong and stable corporation with professional staff and a strong customer base. The company has also positioned itself as a complete IT service provider rather than just an ISP, by providing services such as data connectivity, network integration and consulting, web hosting and development, hardware sales and maintenance, and software development and systems integration through its partnership with WorldLink Technologies Pvt Ltd. Our success as an excellent service provider is exemplified by the satisfaction of our customers.

WorldLink is a success story, the likes of which are usually found in the Silicon Valley. It has thus served as a role model for other startup IT companies. It has demonstrated to young entrepreneurs that IT is the wave of the future, even in a relatively small market like Nepal. It has undoubtedly contributed to the ongoing IT revolution visible in this small Himalayan country. In recognition of its contribution, Nepal Government has invited WorldLink to be a part of IT taskforces such as the National IT Infrastructure Development Committee and contribute to the development of IT in the country.

Proposal for Internet Connectivity 13






Network Architecture of Worldlink Communications

WorldLink currently have more than six STM -1 Capacity OF transit connectivity to the global internet. WorldLink peers with global leader in carrier class network and Tier 1 service provider like SingTel, Airtel, and PCCW etc. for its transit to the global internet. Our Backbone upstream/transit connectivity is shown in the diagram below.

2.0 Network Architecture:

As shown in the figure above (Proposed Network Topology), BRIHAT INVESTMENTS will be connected to the Internet using dual fiber link. WorldLink will have dual Optical Fiber network set up between BRIHAT INVESTMENTS and WLink, one which will work as the primary Internet connectivity and another will be set up secondary Internet connectivity. The purpose of having the primary and secondary connectivity is to have the maximum redundancy. WLink will set up a router at BRIHAT INVESTMENTS, which will enable the secondary connectivity if the primary one fails. The provided router will enable the automatic switch over to the secondary connection. BRIHAT INVESTMENTS will also be provided the internet connectivity via secondary link during main link down for this we have client category as Mission Critical.
