Please log in for more thread options
a question came up from one of our other main locations.
Currently running mutiplexed T1's....

If they move to a metro Ethernet service,
- how is it provisioned & physically delivered
- what about moving to a DS3

And lastly, how do you explain potential thruput increases
to some non-tech folks by just looking at the raw math numbers:
T1 x 2 mux'd = 1.5 x 2 = 3mbit current potential
10mbit metro ethernet = 3+ times as fast
DS3 (40+mbps) = 14+ times as fast

tnx -
