Internet Access

A high tech company cannot survive without high speed Internet connectivity. YBI recognizes the necessity of providing high-tech startups with a robust connectivity solution that is ready-to-use, regardless of their level of networking expertise.

Portfolio Companies enjoy professionally maintained Internet connections at no cost. The system provides two separate connections to the Internet with a fail-over routing system, meaning that should one Internet circuit fail, the second connection automatically takes its place, maintaining high availability and redundancy for Internet-critical business applications. Each Portfolio Company has "static IP" addresses at their disposal, making possible the hosting of Web sites, e-mail and other Internet applications. YBI is also a wireless environment.

Telephony

YBI recognizes the need for startup companies to present a professional telephone presence yet the cost of doing so can present a major hurdle for young companies. To address this issue, YBI maintains a carrier-grade telephony system which creates a cost-sharing collaboration which is continually driving down costs and increasing the range of available services. The system provides direct dial extensions, voice-mail, high-availability call transfer, call-waiting and many other advanced features that enable a startup company to enjoy professional grade telephone service from day one.

Video Conferencing

YBI maintains a robust set of video conferencing connections which make the world at large another available resource. By leveraging video technologies, YBI is able to reach out globally and to interact locally. YBI can connect via the Internet to professional class conferencing rooms globally with up to six simultaneous Internet video calls at once. YBI's video conferencing capability is professionally maintained with tech support always on hand during video conferencing events.
