One of the advantages of VoIP is that voice and Internet services are delivered over the same local loop access circuit using the Internet Protocol (IP).

An Internet T3 (also spelled Internet T-3) is a broadband Internet connection that transfers signals at a rate of 45 Mbps. Both Internet T1 and T3 services are highly-reliable circuits that are usually guaranteed by a Service Level Agreement.

VoIP over Internet Protocol (IP), or VoIP, is a managed voice and Internet solution for businesses that falls into the industry niche referred to as IP Centrex (a feature-rich hosted analog voice solution), or Hosted Private Branch Exchange (PBX) that provides many features and capabilities that transform business communications beyond what traditional voice and data networks can offer.

The ADSL 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 DSL bandwidth speed is the distance from the customer premise to the local telephone company central office.

Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a data network protocol that uses Class of Service (CoS) to prioritize different types of data packets across a shared network to facilitate the convergence of voice, video and data applications.

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.

Wireless Internet is a new way to access the Internet at high speeds from anywhere in the United States. Wireless Internet is delivered via terrestrial transmitters and receivers or by satellites that orbit the Earth while transmitting and receiving high frequency radio internet data to a small dish located at the customer premise. Two-way satellite radio system is reliable, easy to set up and is mobile. You can move the subscriber terrestrical or satellite dish and re-connect with ease.

Have you been frustrated trying to find telecommunications information on the Internet? Are descriptions of services unclear and so carrier specific that you do not trust the content? Telecom Links understands that there is a shortage of clearly-written information about the myriad of telecom services available today. Consequently, the Telecom Links mission is to be the most comprehensive source of telecommunications information on the World Wide Web.

MPLS makes it easier to manage network for quality of service (QoS) because packets can be prioritized by business importance. For example, Voice over IP (VoIP) can be prioritized over email and web browsing packets.
