How MPLS Works MPLS Operates over IP enabled backbone Customer router passes IP packets to provider network Provider edge router applies labels to packets Packet path determined across core network Packets forwarded across network based on Label and Label Switch Path (LSP). Provider forwards packets to destination Customer Site #1 Customer Site #2

Ethernet over Copper Access (EOC) Making High Capacity Bandwidth Affordable Challenge Only 10% of business customers are served by fiber today. Ethernet services are great, but dedicated fiber construction is costly Solution Delivers mid-band speeds (5MB to 40MB) over twisted copper pairs. Sweet Spot for Ethernet is 10MB; Delivery with four copper pairs very cost effectively. Excellent for Private Network and Internet
Reliability, and Consistent Performance T-1 Internet Access Reliable Dedicated bandwidth But expensive, inflexible, and requires expensive hardware Cable Internet Access Best Effort Bandwidth Shared, Over-Subscribed Network Slow Upload Speeds, Variable Performance Ethernet Internet Access Reliable Dedicated bandwidth Cost effective Easy to scale Same Upload & Download Speed Inexpensive Hardware Carrier grade, consistent performance
Ethernet over Copper vs. Legacy T-1 7.6x More Bandwidth, 25% Less Overhead

Centralized IP PBX & SIP (Before) Enterprises have traditionally used multiple local carrier to provide separate Primary Rate Interface (PRI) lines and/or IP connections to each location.
Centralized IP PBX & SIP (After) Retain your existing network or migrate to MPLS provider network. Eliminate lines, equipment and gain business continuity options. Share capacity for sessions across enterprise

Why engage Telco iq?
Carrier Portfolio
What are Customers Saying? Our twelve Cape Fear Farm Credit bank locations were using VPN connections for our Wide Area Network. Telco IQ delivered a solution from that met our needs and provided for future growth on a modern MPLS network. Their knowledge and expertise helped make the transition from a public VPN to a private MPLS network both quick and painless. George For IS Manager, Cape Fear Farm Credit / 12 Location MPLS Implementation Our Community bank s locations used a frame relay WAN to connect our headquarters and nineteen branch locations in Maryland and Delaware. We came to Telco iq knowing that we needed to simplify our network infrastructure, as well as prepare for adding additional applications like voice. Telco iq delivered a solution from that exceeded our requirements. Their solution ended up being more competitive than even the quote I received directly from the same carrier, said Ashley Gibbon, Director of IT, Shore Bancshares Ashley Gibbon, Director of IT, Shore Bancshares/ 19 Location MPLS Implementation These guys know how to get things done! We moved from a frame relay network with that was supported by an Direct Sales Team to MPLS using Telco iq. The difference in support is night and day. We have a dedicated account manager that assisted us through the implementation process and even helped us fix some previous billing errors from our previous solution. The network has been solid and the added support from Telco iq has saved us tons of time and money Ed Smith CIO, UTZ Snacks / 30 Location MPLS Implementation
