EHR / Clinical Applications
Best fit: Cloud Connect
Critical systems need reliable, predictable connectivity between users, facilities, and hosted platforms.
Healthcare organizations have traditionally relied on public Internet connections and IP-based VPNs to connect hospitals, clinics, cloud applications, and other locations. VPNs can encrypt the traffic, but the underlying connection still travels across public Internet infrastructure.
For general web and SaaS traffic, that makes sense. But sensitive clinical data, site-to-site communications, cloud workloads, and other critical applications don’t necessarily need to follow the same path.
Massive Networks gives healthcare IT teams another option: move appropriate traffic onto private, segmented network connections while maintaining high-performance Internet access for the applications that actually need it.
The result is a network architecture designed to reduce public Internet exposure, improve performance predictability, and give different healthcare workloads the connectivity they require.

ONE PIPE MULTI-CONNECT®
One Physical Connection. Multiple Isolated Network Services.
One Pipe Multi-Connect® uses a single high-capacity connection to deliver multiple network services as separate, segmented streams. Private services can carry critical site-to-site, cloud, and data center traffic, while Internet traffic is handled separately through Premium Blended Internet.
Private / segmentedInternet
Select a destination to reveal its network path.
Choose one or more to compare how each service is delivered.
One Pipe doesn’t combine all of your traffic into one undifferentiated connection. It lets Massive Networks deliver multiple separately segmented services over the same physical access circuit.
Not Every Healthcare Workload Has the Same Network Requirements
Different healthcare applications place very different demands on the network. Some require private, low-latency paths between facilities or cloud platforms, while others depend on resilient Internet access. One Pipe Multi-Connect® lets each workload use the type of connection that best fits its needs.

PACS / Medical Imaging
Best fit: Private Layer 2 / Cloud Connect
Large imaging files and diagnostic workflows benefit from high-throughput, low-variability paths between facilities and storage platforms.
Cloud Applications & Infrastructure
Best fit: Cloud Connect
Private connections to AWS, Azure, Oracle, Google Cloud, and other platforms can reduce exposure to public Internet routing and improve performance consistency.
SaaS Applications
Best fit: SaaS Connect
Supported SaaS platforms can use direct or private connectivity to avoid congested public Internet routes and improve application performance.
General Internet
Best fit: Premium Blended Internet / SaaS Connect
Web traffic and Internet-dependent applications still need resilient access. Premium Blended Internet provides multi-provider connectivity, while supported SaaS platforms may use SaaS Connect.
Hospital-to-Hospital / Facility Connectivity
Best fit: Office-to-Office Connect®
Traffic between hospitals, clinics, imaging centers, and other healthcare locations can stay on private Layer 2 paths instead of traversing the public Internet.
- Multi-provider resilience
Premium Blended Internet can use up to five Tier-1 ISPs rather than relying on a single carrier.
- Best-path routing
Traffic can be routed over the best available path to help reduce the impact of provider issues, congestion, jitter, and packet loss.
- One managed service
The healthcare organization gets the benefit of carrier diversity without separately managing multiple ISP relationships.
See How a Healthcare SaaS Provider Built a Private, High-Performance Network
A medical billing SaaS provider needed to securely connect offices, clinics, data centers, and healthcare applications without relying on public-internet VPNs for critical traffic.
Massive Networks helped evolve the environment to private Layer 2 connectivity with redundant office and data center connections — improving performance, supporting HIPAA-sensitive workloads, and eliminating single points of failure.

Reduce the Attack Surface at the Network Layer
Healthcare organizations face constant pressure to secure sensitive systems and data. Network architecture can help by reducing unnecessary exposure to public Internet paths and keeping different traffic types separated. One Pipe Multi-Connect® gives healthcare IT teams the ability to use private, segmented connections where appropriate while maintaining resilient Internet access for the services that require it.
Reduce Public Internet Exposure
Move appropriate site-to-site, cloud, and data center traffic onto private network paths instead of sending everything across the public Internet.
Keep Your Traffic Segmented
Separate Internet, facility-to-facility, cloud, and data center traffic into distinct network services so one traffic type does not simply share the same path as everything else.
Reduce Dependence on Internet-Based VPNs
Private Layer 2 connectivity can replace or complement IP VPNs for appropriate workloads, reducing reliance on public Internet transport between facilities and critical systems.
Security starts with controlling where traffic travels,
not just encrypting it after the fact.
