Advantages of Ethernet over Copper
Ethernet over Copper (EoC) is a type of Ethernet in the very first mile cable that utilizes twisted copper telephone cable pairs that are typically already in place at lots of service locations. As a result, it is usually quicker to provide EoC than to build out new fiber circuits in older service areas.
Ethernet over Copper is a fully grown and trusted modern technology providing the same attributes as typical T1 lines: dedicated, symmetrical, as well as full duplex. Its major advantage is that Ethernet over Copper is provided over copper pairs of DS0 so EoC does not require pricey fiber build outs. One more wonderful advantage over conventional T1 lines is the fact that an Ethernet circuit is a lot easier to upgrade. With the traditional bonded T1, an upgrade in circuit speeds can take months because the regional telephone company needs to install added circuits. With an Ethernet circuit, the port bandwidth could usually be increased as simply a setup change at the central office. Also, Ethernet over Copper runs over several pairs of copper so if one pair drops, the bandwidth available does drop yet you do not loose the whole circuit as you would with a T1 line. Ethernet over Copper prices is considerably lower than that of bonded T1 circuits of the exact same speed. EoC circuits have a Service Level Agreement (SLA) similar to T1 lines normally with the exact identical terms.
