Sharing Business Broadband Costs
Even smaller businesses can have high performance dedicated Internet access by splitting the cost of a fiber optic Ethernet connection with other businesses in their building or business park.

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.

What is PBT?
PBT stands for Provider Backbone Transport. It's an adaption of Ethernet to extend Layer-2 switching into the WAN transport network. PBT was pioneered by Nortel and will be standardized by the IEEE as PBB-TE.

How does managed security work?
Companies that specialize in network security install VPNs and managed firewalls that they remotely monitor from a network operations center. A dedicated security team that specializes in knowing what threats are out there, when they are coming for your network and what to do to mitigate the threat provides the vigilance for a multitude of clients.

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.
