OcularIP’s Type1+ Synthetic Services App Series
Revolutionary applications that transform off-net services into on-net.
For decades, purchasing off-net (Type 2) access circuits has forced carriers to operate with limited visibility into supplier performance. While carriers remain accountable for SLAs, the underlying off-net circuit behavior is often hidden, leading to extended MTTR, operational inefficiency, and customer dissatisfaction.
Type1+ Synthetic Off-Net Visibility fundamentally changes this model.
As part of the Type1+ Application Series, LB Networks’ Type1+ Synthetic Off-Net Visibility application uses advanced OcularIP analytics to expose the true performance of supplier off-net circuits, allowing carriers to manage, measure, and enforce off-net services as if they were on-net Type 1 services.
The Off-Net Visibility Gap
In traditional models:
- Suppliers control access circuit performance data
- Carriers support SLAs without visibility
- Disputes, delays, and inefficiencies follow
Even when carriers deploy NIDs or CPEs, supplier circuit performance remains largely opaque.
What Is Type1+ Synthetic Off-Net Visibility?
Type 1+ Synthetic Off-Net analytics service engine determines the actual supplier off-net circuit performance, without supplier cooperation or hardware, by isolating what was previously hidden.
How It Works
- OcularIP collects PMR data from your on-net circuit (Circuit A)
- OcularIP collects PMR data from the full end-to-end service (Circuit C)
- The analytics engine subtracts Circuit A from Circuit C
- The result is a true representation of the supplier’s off-net circuit (Circuit B)
Operational Capabilities
The synthetic off-net circuit is treated like any other circuit:
- Full performance analytics and visualization
- SLA reporting and enforcement
- Optimization and root-cause analysis
- Service hierarchy integration
Proven at Carrier Scale
Type1+ Synthetic Off-Net Visibility has been validated across nearly one million circuit-months, delivering accuracy exceeding 99.999999% in live carrier networks.
Technology-Agnostic by Design
Supporting over 500 technologies, OcularIP’s xCollect architecture ensures accurate, normalized analytics regardless of vendor, collection method, or interval.
Why Network Teams Deploy Type1+ Synthetic Off-Net Visibility
- Gain accountability for supplier performance
- Reduce MTTR and escalation cycles
- Support defensible SLA enforcement
- Operate off-net services like on-net services
Part of the OcularIP Type1+ Application Series
Type1+ is a family of advanced analytics applications built on OcularIP’s federated xCollect architecture. Each Type1+ application addresses a specific off-net operational challenge while sharing a common data model, analytics engine, and visualization framework.
Together, Type1+ applications enable carriers to scale off-net services with on-net discipline; reducing cost, enhancing operations, and restoring accountability across complex multi-carrier environments.

Frequently Asked Questions About Off-Net Circuit Visibility and Synthetic Visibility
In an industry first, OcularIP’s Synthetic Services engine can calculate the exact performance of an off-net or network segment that the carrier doesn’t have performance metrics on. This ability enables carriers to gain visibility into suppliers’ off-net circuits through OcularIP’s Synthetic Services Type1+ application, which can calculate performance across on-net and off-net segments.
Off-net circuits are delivered by third-party networks, which can limit direct visibility and make troubleshooting and SLA enforcement more difficult. The circuits are the least profitable and most problematic in carrier networks.
Synthetic visibility uses analytics to calculate network performance by combining data from different parts of the service path. OcularIP enables carriers to understand off-net circuit behavior without relying on supplier data.
Carriers manage off-net circuits like on-net services with OcularIP by enabling monitoring, reporting, and SLA enforcement across the full-service path.
