Internet Leased Line VS Broadband Connection
It needs no rocket science knowledge to understand
that seamless internet connectivity is the most important criteria for business
success. Having a high-performance internet connection helps in setting up
highly productive and enhanced collaboration, efficient operation, and increase
business productivity. While searching for fast and hustle free internet
solution, businesses usually come across two most common networking solutions.
They being ILL – Internet Leased Line
and Broadband Connection. In a multidimensional office where business owners
have to deal with converged
applications, there is a need for an ILL connection over the traditional
broadband connection. With ILL one gets a one-stop solution for most common
problems like downtime, pooling of resources, sharing bandwidth, and low speed.
Both internet leased line and broadband
fulfil the internet needs and expectations of the businesses at a fixed
subscription cost. The most common difference between both is that a leased
line is a dedicated line connection between business Office to local exchange,
on the other hand, a broadband connection is a shared and not a dedicated
connection.
Let’s see some advantages of IIL in a details and spot the difference between ILL and a broadband
connection:
Constant Speeds & Dedicated
Bandwidth: An ILL connection provides fixed bandwidth and symmetric speeds
to the businesses. It means that if you are using a 100 mpbs ILL connection,
you always will be receiving a complete 100 mpbs speed connectivity. There is
no scope of fluctuation and you can
enjoy a dedicated and constant bandwidth all the way from your ISP’s core
network. But with broadband, even if you have a 100mpbs connection, the speed
will always depend on how many people are using broadband at the same time
leading to much lower speeds at times. Also, it provides access to same upload
and download speeds so that a businesses can smoothly and conveniently manage
their work. Broadband connections offer asymmetric bandwidth i.e. – faster for
downloads than for uploads which might lead to bottleneck.
·
Server Level Agreement : An
ILL connection generally comes with industry-backed SLAs (Commitment form
Server Level) for the business owners to be assured of reliability and certainty
at service levels. Businesses can rely on ILL’s that certain faults and
glitches will be fixed by the service providers as fast as possible. With a normal
broadband connection, the time of fixing the issues is much longer as compared
to the ILL . Where it might as well take 2-5 days to fix a broadband issue,
with an ILL connection the issues has to
be fixed within a few hours.
·
Cost Saving: If a business
plans on expanding their operations it is very important to have an ILL
connection. It is the best option because it provides scalability, it takes
care of the performance parameters like low latency, low jitter, and more
uptime and it provides best performance and monitoring abilities along with
reliable connectivity to cut down the unnecessary expenditure of the
businesses. Moreover if businesses feel the need to upgrade their speed and
bandwidth, they just required to upgrade their plan.
·
Security & Reliability : ILL
is much more secure and reliable than a broadband connection. A broadband
connection is generally shared by several users which somewhat compromises the
security factor, whereas in an internet leased line sharing among multiple
customers is not likely. Thus, an internet leased line is more secure than that
of a broadband connection.
An internet leased line assures businesses
of a much better, faster and secure internet
service. But price while availing an ILL service can be one of your concerns ,
but when you consider the advantages i.e. seamless connection, faster speed and
contention, and SLAs and security you will understand what you are paying for
is much more cost effective.
