MPLS VPNs transport layer 2 packets across the network and encapsulate transport protocols such as ATM, Ethernet, and SONET, allowing MPLS networks to seemlessly upgrade and replace legacy layer 2 networks without requiring network reconfiguration or using protocols higher than layer 2. In comparison, layer 3 VPNs must use the layer 3 Internet Protocol (IP).

An Internet T1 (sometimes spelled T-1) is a high speed telecommunication line that can carry 24 digitalized voice channels, or it can carry data at a rate of 1.544 megabits per second.

Voice over IP is a digital phone service that allow users to make calls across the public switched telephone network (PSTN) via the Internet. By using a high speed Internet connection and a VoIP phone or analog telephone adapter (ATA), a user receives the same type of phone service as plain old telephone service (POTS) plus many additional features. For example, find me / follow me allow a user to enter all of the phone numbers the user wants to ring when the user's VoIP phone number is called. If you are at home, at the office, or on your mobile phone, all of your phones can be rung in succession or at the same time using VoIP!

MPLS network is particularly important to businesses running applications that require latency such as VoIP, ERP, SAP, etc.

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.

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.

High-speed microsave and satellite Internet connections for business can replace or back up traditional terrestrial landlines such as Internet T1s and Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) service. With wireless Internet service in place as your primary or backup Internet connection, you can always count on low-latency connection to the Internet that means you will have an "always up", "never down", "zero outage" service that eliminates wasted time and increases productivity.

Telecom Links mission is to be a comprehensive source of telecommunications information on the World Wide Web.

Layer 2 MPLS VPNs (L2VPNs) are similar to Frame Relay, Asynchronous Transfer Mode, or point-to-point Wide Area Networks (WANs).
