What is Ethernet over Copper Access?
Ethernet over Copper, or EoC, uses copper transmission lines rather
that fiber optics. By using a proprietary modulation scheme, existing copper telco pair can be bonded to transport Ethernet bandwidths from 3 to 50 Mbps.
What Does Fully Meshed Mean?
MPLS networks that are described as fully meshed offer any-to-any connections within the cloud network. You specify the desired connectivity between locations to the network service provider.
Why Use Private WAN Network Solutions?
A private network has inherently better security and can be structured to guarantee important parameters such as bandwidth, jitter, latency, and packet integrity.
What is Latency?
It is the time delay in the network. In other words, how long it takes to get a packet from node to node. The lower limit is set by the speed of light, which equates to 1 msec per 186 miles in a vacuum.
MPLS Network Speeds
MPLS networks can run at any network speed and are being adopted by major carriers as the multipoint to multipoint technology of choice. For this reason, MPLS is fast replacing Frame Relay.
