Netsolve's larger clients included Cisco and AT&T.
Southwest Network Services (SNS) was a nation-wide data communications carrier which began in late 1991. The SNS network was a circuit-switched network consisting of DSC Communications CP4000 and CS1 DCSs (digital cross-connect systems) in many major U.S. cities, as well as smaller cities in Texas. During the early nineties SNS carried subrate (< DS0) modem and DDS traffic, and eventually scaled to DS0, fractional T-1 and T1 products. In 1994, SNS deployed a small frame-relay network consisting of Cascade Communications STDX-3000s, 6000s, and 9000s. The entire carrier network was sold by Netsolve to ICI Communications of Orlando, Florida in early 1996. ICI was later bought by MCI Communications.
SNS additionally sold networking equipment, beginning with Micom and Penril multiplexers. Eventually, SNS sold 3Com, Wellfleet, and finally, Cisco equipment. Netsolve ended this service in 2003.
