The demands for speed are real. Companies have deadlines to meet, quotas to fill. The people are moving to slow because their Internet connection is slowing them down. The solution is High Speed Connectivity. The problem is the high cost of Streamyx dedicated connection like a T1 or a DS3. I won't even get into the pricing of OC3's, OC12's, OC48's and OC192's, those are for the speed and data addicts. Not to worry though, a solution does exist, but not everyone has access.
The beautiful thing about this solution is that it does not require a local loop. For those of you who are not familiar with what a local loop is, here is a brief definition. A local loop is a connection that connects the customer from the ISP, otherwise known as the Internet Service Provider, right into the demarcation point in the Streamyx facility. The local loop also has a hefty recurring fee that's associated with it that is usually have the cost of the data circuit. For those of you who are fortunate enough, Metro Ethernet is your answer.
Ethernet Metro usually resides in the metropolitan areas where Internet Service Providers have built our their fiber network. The nice thing about this technology is that you can bypass the Local Exchange Carrier, or LEC for short which is the acronym for Local Exchange Carrier and plug right into the Internet network of the ISP. Ethernet usually comes in 3 flavors of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps and 1000 Mbps.
Now the next question you are probably asking yourself is how would one find out if Ethernet is Streamyx Combo in their neck of the woods. Lucky for you an Ethernet locator tool exists. Check it out by clicking here -> Locate Ethernet Providers.
