About the Telecom Broker Network

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).

T1 lines carry about roughly 30 times more data than a normal dial-up modem.

Hosted Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is a voice and data technology that supports several telecommunications protocols, such as Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and Internet Protocol (IP), that that makes it easy for people to use the Internet to make telephone calls while saving money on premise hardware.

Real-Time Solutions: Why wait for days, weeks, or even months to receive telecommunications service pricing? Our Real-Time Telecommunications Brokerage Service will IMMEDIATELY provide you with voice and data service information and pricing.

Ethernet can be used to connect twisted copper pair networks and to connect fiber optic cable networks.

MPLS is a standardized data switching technology that optimizes network traffic flow and eases management of data networks. MPLS carves specific paths data packets that are identified by a label that saves the time needed for a router to look up the address to the next node in order to forward the packet. MPLS works with the Internet Protocol (IP), Asynchronous Transport Mode (ATM), and frame relay network protocols. MPLS allows most packets to be forwarded at the layer 2 (switching) level rather than at the layer 3 (routing) level and makes it easy to manage quality of service (QoS).

Ethernet is the most widely-used data network protocol today. Standardized as IEEE 802.3, the Ethernet protocol is used for local area networks (LANs) at the Layer 1 (Physical Layer) and Layer 2 (Data Link Layer) of the OSI networking model.

DSL service is delverd as Asymmetric DSL (ADSL) which is the most common application for Internet access, where fast downstream is required, but slow upstream is acceptable, and as Symmetric DSL (SDSL) which supports high speed access across the local access loop in both directions.

Exlpore why Ethernet is probably the next killer broadband delivery platform.

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.
