Medical Imaging Transmission
Medical images, such as those generated by Teleradiology equipment, have large file sizes due to high resolution. Rapid transmission between hospitals and medical centers requires high availability, high bandwidth telecommunication services. For smaller offices or infrequent use, a T1 data line might easily suffice. For medium and larger facilities, DS3 or Ethernet fiber optic carriers are recommended.

What is Ethernet over Copper
Ethernet over Copper, or EoC, uses copper transmission lines rather that fiber optics. T1 lines are most often used to transport mid-band Ethernet signals in the 1 to 10 Mbps bandwidth range when provisioning fiber optic lines is too expensive.

Where does a VPN make sense?
A VPN or Virtual Private Network is a security technique to allow public networks, like the Internet, to be used for secure private data transmission. Since Internet access is almost universally available, using VPN software to encrypt data into private tunnels is more cost effective than building a fully meshed network to connect many locations.

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.

What is the Cost Advantage of Carrier Ethernet
Where available, Ethernet transport services from competitive carriers may cost less than half the lease price of DS3 service for over twice the bandwidth. The difference in cost between SONET optical carrier service and Gigabit Ethernet WAN service is even more dramatic.
