About the Telecom Broker Network

VoIP phone calls are usually delivered over a carefully-managed network often running Quality of Service (QoS) and the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP).

An Internet T1 (or T-1) T1 is a symmetrical local access connection to an Internet port that allows for downloads and uploads of up to 1.5 Mega Bits Per Second (Mbps) which is 30 times as fast as a 56 Kilo Bits Per Second (Kbps) dial-up connection over a standard Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) phone line.

Many VoIP service providers guarantee that phone calls will not travel over the public Internet, but are converted and transmitted over the traditional telephone network directly from the VoIP provider's private Internet network that usually adheres to a defined Quality of Service (QoS).

Our clients include Fortune 500 Companies, Small-to-Medium Businesses (SMBs) Governmental Agencies, Defense Contractors, Hospitals, Law Offices, Internet Service Providers, Wireless ISPs, State Universities, Web Hosting Companies, etc.

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) can be used to create intelligent networks that support advanced data packet management over a single network while saving money. MPLS can be integrated seamlessly over any existing infrastructure such as IP, Frame Relay, ATM, or Ethernet and end users with different types of local access circuits may be joined together on the same network without changing their current access protocols.

Ethernet is the most widely-used data network protocol today. Standardized as IEEE 802.3, the Ethernet protocol is used for local area networks (LANs) at the Layer 1 (Physical Layer) and Layer 2 (Data Link Layer) of the OSI networking model.

DSL service is delverd as Asymmetric DSL (ADSL) which is the most common application for Internet access, where fast downstream is required, but slow upstream is acceptable, and as Symmetric DSL (SDSL) which supports high speed access across the local access loop in both directions.

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.

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 can be used to create highly-scalable IP networks with layer 2 level security as well as easy network configuration, management, and provisioning.
