- Latest Updates & Information - Advantage of Colocation Bandwidth Colocation is locating your servers in a colocation facility, also known as a carrier hotel. Advantages of this approach include ready availability of low cost bandwidth including 10 Mbps Ethernet, 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet options. These data centers also offer backup power, environmental control and high levels of security. What does Convergence mean? Convergence is the merging of voice, data and often video onto a single network. Most often that network is a company LAN with enough bandwidth to accommodate all users and QoS or Quality of Service control to ensure high quality voice and video transmissions. Is Ethernet a Full or Half Duplex system? The original Ethernet implementation was based on avoiding collisions on packets all sharing the same network line. Small networks using hubs are half-duplex. Switched Ethernet networks are full duplex because the layer 2 switches prevent packet collisions. What is a Service Level Agreement? An SLA or Service Level Agreement is often part of the contract between a business and telecom carrier for line services such as carrier Ethernet.The SLA spells out the expected availability of the line service and what penalties the carrier is liable for if the line doesn't perform as stated. Will Carriers "Light Buildings"? Some will if their closest point of presence (POP) is within a mile or so of your location. The farther away you are, the higher the bandwidth commitment needs to be in order to justify the carrier's construction costs.	Metro Ethernet Prices Reduced!
