T1 vs DSL for Business Broadband
T1 lines set up as T1 Dedicated Internet connections give business
users guaranteed bandwidth of 1.5 Mbps both upload and download,
plus a SLA service level agreement to assure line reliability.
DSL is a "best effort" Internet service that is offered
without any service guarantee on a shared connection. Bandwidth
varies depending on how heavily other businesses are using the
connection.
Digital Signage Bandwidth Options
Digital signs, including large billboards, are easily and instantly
updated with data downloads. T1 and fractional T1 lines or VSAT
digital satellite connections are available even in rural areas.
What Are Pseudowires?
A pseudowire is a virtual "circuit" that emulates a
traditional digital telecom service but on a packet switched network.
MPLS networks are especially suitable for pseudowires. By using
a pseudowire circuit, you can get the point to point connectivity
you desire without having to re-engineer your facilities to accommodate
a different protocol network.
Virtual Private Networks Link
Branch Offices
Many businesses now have more than one office location or need
to include other facilities such as warehouses and remote data
centers. A VPN or Virtual Private Network allows you to use dedicated
Internet connections as private network connections through data
encryption. A VPN solution is generally much less expensive than
extensive dedicated point to point circuits.
Advantages of Managed IP Services
Managed IP is a WAN or Wide Area Network service that is provided
and managed by a competitive carrier that owns and operates its
own IP network. A managed IP provider ensures that you have the
bandwidth and connectivity you need, without having to manage
the WAN yourself.
