What is MPLS?
MPLS stands for Multiprotocol Label Switching. MPLS is a highly-scalable protocol agnostic, data-carrying mechanism. Within the internet protocol suite, MPLS and the MPLS Network is at the Link Layer. MPLS is utilized in high-performing networks to direct and carry data from one MPLS network node to the next. MPLS makes it easy to create "virtual links" between distant nodes. It can encapsulate packets of network protocols within the MPLS network.
How can MPLS help my business?
MPLS is the next generation in virtual networks and high speed internet connections. MPLS Networks offer such a high Quality of Service, that you can transmit your local phone service, business long distance, internet, video, and data communication over the same pipe, and rest assured that your most important transmissions get priority. Each of these high speed internet connections data gets marked and addressed by the edge router and then efficiently transmitted through the MPLS Network to the right application.
Moreover, MPLS Network technology leverages the high speed internet connections investment which telecommunication carriers have put into developing strong data and internet access networks, while still keeping the data on a secure and private network.
MPLS offers businesses with 2 or more locations a very cost effective way to interconnect all of their locations and enable IP Phone System station-to-station dialing and desktop and conference room video, as well as highly-secure high speed internet connections data transmission.
