Gigabit Ethernet Compared to OC3
Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) can be a more cost effective alternative to OC3 (155 megabits per second - mbps) for businesses that need circuits much larger than a DS3 (45 mbps). Gigabit Ethernet is available at speeds of 100 mbps to 1000 mbps. Both OC3 and GigE can be used for receiving internet service at a single location, point-to-point circuits between two locations or MPLS networks that include multiple locations.
The benefits of Ethernet compared to OC3 are scalability, cost and amount of bandwidth available. Once you install an OC3 (155 mbps) circuit, if more bandwidth is needed, you will need to purchase a separate circuit, possibly incurring large build out costs. Installing a GigE circuit at 100 mbps would allow you to scale up to 1000 mbps, potentially saving thousands of dollars for installation of the additional bandwidth. The monthly costs of GigE versus OC3 are often lower per megabit of bandwidth. OC3 (155 mbps) can cost on average of $5500 per month, while a 200 mbps GigE circuit can average $5100 per month, depending on your location. In this example, the GigE circuit is $400 less per month and provides 45 mbps more bandwidth. These prices are averages. Pricing and availability are subject to the location of your business.
Gigabit Ethernet and OC3 are both available as burstable bandwidth. This allows a business to pay only for extra bandwidth used during periods of unique, higher usage. Use the no obligation quote request at the top of this page to see if these services are available in Arkansas.
Gigabit Ethernet Bandwidth
GigE price quotes are established by several factors such as the distance between the telecom provider’s central office (CO) and the business location where the bandwidth is needed. Another factor in determining GigE price quotes is the amount of competition from the various telecom providers that serve the business location requiring the bandwidth. If there are several telecom providers that serve a location, prices will be more competitive for that location. A major component in determining availability of Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) is the distance between the business location and the nearest fiber-fed telecom CO.
Full GigE provides 1000 megabits per second (mbps) of bandwidth. GigE price quotes and availability can be obtained by accessing the pricing tool at the top of this page. Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) is an ideal alternative for businesses that have outgrown full DS3 (45 megabits per second or mbps) or OC3 (155 mbps) circuits.
Gigabit Ethernet can be used for facilitating a wide variety of IT applications including internet connections, VoIP, MPLS networks, point-to-point circuits, data and/or video streaming and web hosting. GigE is available in most major cities and is also available as burstable Gigabit Ethernet. Burstable GigE are available in speeds ranging from 100 mbps up to 1000 mbps. Fractional GigE is available in the same bandwidth increments. Burstable GigE allows a business to pay for only the amount of bandwidth used while having access to a full 1000 mbps during periods of higher bandwidth usage.
