MPLS IP VPN is a regionwide state-of-the-art service that delivers the security and performance levels of a private IP network from a shared public infrastructure. More specifically, it provides connectivity between sites across a shared public infrastructure in a secure manner with the same policies as a private network.

In the modern business environment, companies are increasingly under pressure to support a wide variety of voice and data communication channels between cities or locations. Employees also need to access and share information as they travel or work from remote locations or branch offices around the world. Existing WAN technologies, such as International Private Leased Circuit (IPLC) or a pure Internet access, are either too expensive or limited in their flexibility to meet changing business requirements (for example, a leased line connecting two small offices is expensive to maintain). It is out of such inadequacy that IP-based VPN TECHNOLOGY has emerged as the solution.

What differentiates MPLS IP VPN from its competitors?

As the one of  IP VPN service providers in the region to deliver superior Quality of Service (QoS) with the Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) TECHNOLOGY. MPLS is a key routing protocol for service providers to steer IP traffic onto a variety of routes instead of one single channel, to avoid congestion or failures, or to achieve what effective QoS aims to achieve - minimized traffic delay, optimized data throughput, and minimized jitter and loss of data packets. MPLS enables enterprises and service providers to supercharge their VPNs, dramatically improving scalability, performance and security.

Since IP is fast becoming the dominant networking protocol in the world, our MPLS-based VPN service has become one of the region's most practical, future-proof ways of delivering the full chain of time-sensitive applications over corporate IP networks. Examples of these emerging applications include multicasting, streaming video, video conferencing, IP fax, and other e-business solutions.

Differences between MPLS IP VPN, IPLC and pure Internet access

Once considered one of the most competing products for MPLS IP VPN, IPLC is a more traditional point-to-point connection and suffers from a number of disadvantages. IPLC requires the self-provision by businesses of their own communication needs over their own networks. Businesses build their own internal corporate networks by purchasing IPLCs and leased lines, and then adding on top of these lines the necessary equipment (e.g. switches, routers, etc.). Such a solution involves in-house management and maintenance of the corporate network, which could prove a very complex task, requiring numerous and skilled staff.

Pure Internet access involves sole reliance on non-customized basic telecommunication services purchased locally from various suppliers. The Internet, however, is not a controllable and predictable environment. Consequently, as soon as data packets get into the Internet, rather than a single controlled IP network, they are subject to unpredictable quality issues.

I - LINK TECHNOLOGY also provided dynamically scalable bandwidth, ranging from 64Kbps to 155Mbps. We serves nearly all the major cities across the region with its multi-carrier backbone. The company's customers include Fortune 1000 enterprises, financial institutions, real estate companies, law firms, medical facilities, software developers, Web-based businesses, ISPs and ASPs, universities, school districts and government agencies.

Dedicated Internet access is available mainly through 3 different channels:

• Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL),

• Leased Line, and

• Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM).

ADSL

ADSL is a TECHNOLOGY for transmitting digital information at a high bandwidth on existing phone lines. Advantages include high speed, especially on download, the ability to transmit both data and voice on the same line, and a lower cost than leased lines (see below).

Leased line

Leased line is a permanent telephone connection between two points that has been leased for private use. The primary advantages of a leased line are high speed and a guaranteed level of quality since the access is not shared with anyone else.

ATM

ATM is an evolving TECHNOLOGY designed for the high-speed transfer of voice, video and data over a single network. ATM allows for the integration of networks, thus improving efficiency and manageability.
