Business DSL
Meet Your Business Internet Service Needs
The time is always ripe for discovering fast, affordable Internet service for your business. Maybe you’ve just kicked off a new venture and seek Internet access that meets your needs without exceeding your budget. Or perhaps dial-up service no longer fits the bill for your company’s growing Internet specifications. The slow-moving transfer of information that dial-up offers is unacceptable, and your company simply cannot operate efficiently when your telephone service is blocking your Internet access, and vice versa. Your LAN or WAN needs are changing, and you want an Internet service that can keep up with your new communication requirements. What you want is a way to boost your Internet capabilities without breaking the bank. A digital subscriber line (DSL) just might be the solution you’ve been seeking.
How DSL Works
Like its slower predecessor, dial-up, DSL Internet service uses an existing copper telephone line to access the Internet. Unlike dial-up, DSL performs almost 20 times faster, thereby providing high-speed Internet access. With DSL, your computer sends digital signals to a modem connected to a telephone wall jack. The DSL modem converts this information into voltage and transmits it via the telephone line to the local Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplier (DSLAM). Acting as a liaison between the DSL client’s Internet Service Provider (ISP) address and the Internet, the DSLAM presents client requests and returns Internet responses.
Because DSL service travels across copper wire on a different frequency band than voice signals, Internet and telephone services will not conflict and in fact can occur simultaneously over the same telephone line when DSL service is used.
DSL: A Speedy, Affordable, and Smart Solution
For a price comparable with that for dial-up, DSL provides a fast, continuous Internet connection that does not disrupt phone service. Switching from dial-up to DSL will increase your operating speed from 56 kilobits per second (kbps) to anywhere between 128 kbps and 8 megabits per second (mbps). Rather than your Internet tying up your phone lines or your telephone calls interfering with your Internet access, as occurs with dial-up, a DSL connection enables you to be on the phone and online at the same time, which is a far more conducive solution for today’s business requirements. Since DSL is not disruptive to telephone services, it never needs to be turned off, meaning your business is always connected and available for the near-instant information transfer high-speed Internet provides.
