Installation and Service Costs
If you have
Ethernet in your building (lit building), the
setup fee typically associated
with provisioning is
significantly less than if a
carrier has to run fiber to your
building or relay the Ethernet
signal through copper or DS3
lines in the area. Each situation
varies and must be dealt with
on a case by case basis. Our
consultants are available to
help you.

How is this tool valuable?
The metro Ethernet locator is valuable for people
or businesses who are looking to:
- move into a
building with
existing carrier
facilities.
- substantially
upgrade their
current broadband
connections.
- establish a
direct relationship
with a provider
without the local
Bell in the equation.
- find a carrier
who provides
QoS (Quality
of Service) guarantees.
Ethernet allows
the carrier you
select to be
in complete control
of your connection,
it is much easier
for them to provide
QoS.
- gather information
that will be
helpful in the
planning stages
of broadband
deployment for
a new real-estate
development.
