Hosted VoIP eliminates the need to purchase or lease expensive PBX equipment to gain advanced calling features such as voicemail, automated attendants, extension dialing, call forwarding, call park, or call transfer. Hosted VoIP also eliminates the need to obtain service from multiple carriers for local and long distance calling, PBX tie-lines, private lines, etc. The service also includes Internet access and Quality of Service (QoS) to guarantee voice quality all on one invoice. Hosted VoIP offers freedom from legacy equipment costs, eliminates reliance on slow-moving traditional phone companies, multiple bills, and offers flexibility to deliver customized user productivity solutions for your company.

MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching):
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).
Internet over Ethernet:
Ethernet access to the Internet is quickly becomming a popular service. Ethernet, which is usually thought of as the protocol used to connect computers and servers on a local area network (LAN), is now increasingly being used across metropolitan wide area networks (WANS) to connect corporate LANs to the Internet. The advantage of Ethernet Internet Access service is that connection speeds that range from 1 Megabit per Second (Mbps) to 1 Gigabit per Second (Gbps) can be accessed via the same protocol being used on corporate LANs.
The wide-spread use of Ethernet has reduced the cost of Ethernet switches and also the space required to deploy Ethernet networks either via twisted pair copper or fiber and virtually all computer manufacturers include an Ethernet card as a standard component on Personal Computer (PC) motherboards which eliminates having to install an Ethernet card as a peripheral device.
Digital Subscriber Line Service (DSL):
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) connects end users (subscribers) to the Internet via a plain old telephone service (POTS) line that uses an existing copper pair but has been sped up by a Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) located at the service provider centeral office (CO) to form a continuous digital high-speed data connection from the customer premise to the Internet.
Asymetric DSL (ADSL) allows more bandwidth to move data toward the end user (multimedia and text) than from the end user (mostly keystrokes and mouse behavior) to the Internet. The downstream receiving rate from the Internet usually varies from 1.5 to 9Mbps while the upstream sending rate usually varies from 16 to 640 Kbps. The main limitation on bandwidth speeds available is the distance from the customer premise to the local telephone company central office.
Wireless Internet Service:
Satellite Wireless Internet is a new way to access the Internet at high speeds from anywhere in the United States. Satellite Wireless Internet is delivered via satellites that orbit the Earth while transmitting and receiving high frequency radio internet data to a small dish located at the customer premise. This two-way satellite radio system is reliable, easy to set up and is mobile. You can move the subscriber satellite dish and re-connect with ease.
HughesNet offers high-speed Satellite Wireless Internet service satellite internet (sometimes incorrectly spelled satelite internet) to subscribers who are in remote locations or unique locations where DSL or other types of Internet access is unavailable. All you need to connect to HughesNet is an unobstructed view of the southern sky. Please click on the banner below for more information.
