MPLS VPNs transport layer 2 packets across the network and encapsulate transport protocols such as ATM, Ethernet, and SONET, allowing MPLS networks to seemlessly upgrade and replace legacy layer 2 networks without requiring network reconfiguration or using protocols higher than layer 2. In comparison, layer 3 VPNs must use the layer 3 Internet Protocol (IP).
An Internet T1 (sometimes spelled T-1) is a high speed telecommunication line that can carry 24 digitalized voice channels, or it can carry data at a rate of 1.544 megabits per second.
VoIP over Internet Protocol (IP), or VoIP, is a managed voice and Internet solution for businesses that falls into the industry niche referred to as IP Centrex (a feature-rich hosted analog voice solution), or Hosted Private Branch Exchange (PBX) that provides many features and capabilities that transform business communications beyond what traditional voice and data networks can offer.
Representative Telecommunication Services: We offer VoIP PBX, IP PBX, US termination, SIP gateway, VoIP gateway, data and Internet T1 (DS1) lines (1.5 Mbps bi-directional transfer upload and download rate), fractional T1 (DS1) circuits (256 Kbps to 1,024 Kbps), bonded (load balanced) T-1 (DS1) lines (3 Mbps to 12 Mbps), T3 (DS3) lines (6 Mbps to 45 Mbps), point-to-point private lines, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), MPLS (Multi Protocol Label Switching), wide area network (WAN) configurations, inbound and outbound call center services, IP PBX and Hosted VoIP solutions, dynamic and channelized integrated T1 (DS1) lines, Primary Rate ISDN (PRI) service, etc.
Ethernet can be used to connect twisted copper pair networks and to connect fiber optic cable networks.
MPLS network is particularly important to businesses running applications that require latency such as VoIP, ERP, SAP, etc.
Connect your business local area network (LAN) to the Internet using the same protocol that operates on your LAN: Ethernet. This increasingly popular Internet access solution makes it easy to connect all of the computers on your LAN at your company to the Internet with minimal configuration and cost.
Asymetric DSL (ADSL) allows more bandwidth to move data toward the end user (multimedia and text) than from the end user (mostly keystrokes and mouse behavior) to the Internet.
High-speed Microwave, 3G, and Satellite Wireless Internet service connects subscribers who are in remote locations or unique locations where DSL or other types of Internet access is unavailable. All you need to connect to wireless Internet is an unobstructed view of the provider Internet transmitter - receiver or satellite.
If you are looking for clear, concise definitions of telecommunication terms and explanations of telecom services, especially how they are used and how they work, TelecomLInks is a great place to start.
MPLS can be used to facilitate layer 3 IP VPNs, layer 2 VPNs, Quality of Service (QoS), Class of Service (CoS) and to guarantee Service Level Agreements.
