Mbps Ethernet

Shopping For Ethernet To Replace Existing T1 Lines and DS3 Connections

If you are looking for High-Speed Internet and low cost, than Ethernet is for you. Ethernet was developed around the 1970s by Xerox Corporation by an experimental coaxial cable network to transmit data up to 3 Mbps. That experiment brought upon some attention and led to faster speeds in the 1980s of up to 10 Mbps Ethernet Version 1.0 specification by 3 major influences whose Corporate names are Digital Equipment, Intel and Xerox. There are 3 standards of Ethernet that are covered by IEEE 802.3 what is commonly known as the CSMA/CD Protocol. The 3 famous data rates are as follows that operate over optical fiber and twisted pair cables which are 10 Mbps-10Base-T Ethernet, 100 Mbps-Fast Ethernet and 1000 Mbps-Gigabit Ethernet.

Most business owners or I.T. personnel know that bandwidth can be expensive and with the ever increasing number of files being downloaded and data being transmitted, the Bandwidth needs are increasing dramatically. In the past the only real dedicated data connection you could get was from a T1 Line, Bonded T1, DS3 or Fractional T3 and so on an so forth.

What this means to the customer is bypassing the local carrier and plugging right into the data or telecom providers network. For those of you who are familiar with local loops for T1′ and T3′s, those can be quite expensive and because they are a fixed cost that recurs every month, that’s a fee that can be done without. The only draw back to Ethernet is that it’s limited to where the telecom provider has built out it’s network. Usually, Ethernet is only in metropolitan areas and is otherwise known as Metro Ethernet. Now there is a tool that enables the user to get real time pricing and Ethernet Network availability by just inputting the exact physical location and phone number associated with the service inquiry.

For those of you who would like to talk to a live operator, SOLVEFORCE, a telecommunications agency, has a toll free number you can call at 1-888-765-8301 and they can check out availability for you. You can use the Ethernet locator by clicking on the – Metro Ethernet tool. The moral of the story is this, bigger bandwidth, less money!
