The Reason You Need Business Ethernet
Whenever you notice people today discussing business Ethernet, it's sad that in the telecom world of right now, you cannot be entirely sure of what they're speaking of. The very regrettable component of this is that the DSL and cable suppliers have thrown the phrase “Ethernet” around a great deal that it virtually means very little to the average consumer, just as the equally useless term “broadband”. As an example, when you are discussing “broadband”, people don't know if you're discussing your home DSL network or your dedicated Internet connection in the office with a reliable service provider, both can be seen by the non-technical user as merely “broadband”.
What you must comprehend is the reality of this. Both “Ethernet” and “broadband” could be delivered to your home, a home office, or even a campsite in the backwoods. And possibly you are even using it, perhaps from the comfort of your own home or your campsite firepit, for business purposes. But what you're really using it for doesn't make a hill of beans of difference as to its reliability, its throughput, or whether it is shared amongst 200 other homes and companies in your area, or whether it is dedicated and guaranteed.
It is essential to see the difference between “shared” and “dedicated”. DSL and cable (which include Uverse and FIOS) are SHARED connections. You don't have guarantees from a contract perspective. Regardless of whether you like it or not, you'll be SHARING your Internet connection and circuit segment with as much as 200 or more other businesses and residences in your neighborhood, whether you like that idea or not. Yes even if the carrier brands it as “business class”, that implies practically nothing except they are able to bill you more for it, simply because they still offer no contractual guarantees.
By huge comparison, real business Ethernet, including Ethernet Over Copper, Fast Ethernet, Metro Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet, is a DEDICATED service. You have a contractual guarantee from the carrier regarding the amount of bandwidth, both up and down, that they're supplying you with on a 24x7 basis. The keyword here is "contractual guarantee", because you have no such guarantee on paper with DSL or cable.
How do you know who can supply business Ethernet service at the most affordable price? In basic terms, you deal with an impartial professional that works in the telecommunications industry. If you had a leaky kitchen sink, would you call an electrician to repair it or for advice? If your car had a flat tire, would you take your car to a transmission professional for their view? Simply no, you select professionals in that field who can provide you with an unbiased view of the options as well as guarantee the lowest price from many first tier leading carriers, which is precisely what we do.
Possibly business Ethernet isn't your most cost effective choice, so we also can guide you to suggest or recommend T1, bonded T1, DS3, MPLS and other similar and DEDICATED circuits so your business can get done what is required to be done, and not trusting your company’s online presence to an iffy service with no guarantees that would basically be marginally suitable for use at your home, like DSL and cable.
Please visit us today to find out what your best and most cost effective selections are for your location. Let us understand your requirements and needs so that we can suggest the correct service for you, where business Ethernet is likely your most cost effective option.
