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.

How is PoE used for IP Phones?
PoE or Power over Ethernet is a standard that defines a way to transmit electric power to network devices as well as information packets. When PoE equipment is installed in equipment lockers, an IP telephone gets its power from the network and does not need a separate AC power supply.

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.

How does Spanning Tree Protocol work?
STP or Spanning Tree Protocol is a technique used by Ethernet switches to ensure that there is one and only one physical path from source to destination. This is done to prevent forwarding loops.

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.
