Why do Businesses Love Ethernet over Copper?

With the rapid increase of cloud based services, video and unified communications, the demand for high bandwidth Internet keeps growing. Internet providers have relied more and more on Ethernet technologies to deliver a solution for this. Ethernet Over Copper (EoC) is one of the most prevailing technologies. The most basic Ethernet network consists of two or more devices connected through a standardized cable. An Ethernet switch can host hundreds of devices and can extend the reach of the network. Today Ethernet network are used to connect more than just computers. It’s used for cloud based applications, video conferencing, multi-point WAN connection and data recovery.
A few of the most important benefits this service offers are:

Reliability
EoC is ironically more reliable, with less downtime than other Internet technologies, such as fiber and T1, due to the fact that service providers often deploy extra copper pairs for redundancy. This service has proved to be more reliable than T1 or cable internet service, because the flexible network topologies are supported, this allows for one or more DSO loops to go down without the EoC circuit going offline completely.

Cost Effectiveness
With EoC pricing being considerably cheaper than T1 service pricing any and every company or organization located in a major metropolitan city that is still using a T1 should switch over. With little equipment needed on installation, the startup cost is lower than many other high bandwidth technologies. As technology keeps advancing, prices keep dropping while bandwidth availability goes up.

Consistency
Like DSL, EoC is a distance sensitive technology that can only be delivered within a couple of miles of a local telecom Central Office. This ensures that you are not sharing your bandwidth with neighboring customers of your provider. With the consistency this service offers it is much more scalable and you can get much higher speeds. If your business is still in the growing stages this is a great service to start off with.
