Assuming the
ISP takes advantage of Cedarcom's broadband network,
and rather than offering complicated downlink
dish solutions to clients, offer their clients
1 STOP SHOP solutions via Cedarcom
-
Assuming the
ISP has redundant downlink providers.
-
This will lead
to:
faster installation,
limit points of failure,
reduced support and maintenance and
enhanced internet experience (in case 1 downlink
provider fails) and faster online upgrade for the
local loop if any need. The saving cost for the
downlink is around 625 $ (Installation of the dish
+ penta card cost + Server cost)
TWO:
-
Assuming the ISP has proper
caching farm.
-
Assuming the caching saves
35% traffic.
-
This will lead to savings
in ISP's internet backbone costs!
-
This will lead to ISP higher
profit margins!
This will lead to potential savings to internet
users!
B. Ask your ISP to switch you to Cedarcom backbone
and connect you through
i-Broadband 256. You will
benefit a lot! Here is why! ONE:
-
Assuming the ISP takes advantage of Cedarcom's broadband network, and offers 1 STOP SHOP via Cedarcom; rather than separate downlink dish at client site.
-
Assuming the ISP uses redundant downlink providers.
-
This will lead to less expensive installation, limit points of failure, reduce support and maintenance.
-
This will lead to enhancing your internet experience (Vs. in case your downlink dish failed).
TWO:
-
Assuming the ISP has proper caching farm and peering.
-
Assuming your link to the internet is 64 Kbps or 128 Kbps
-
Assuming 2 of your colleagues are simultaneously accessing the net, 1 checking his email, while the other is browsing the web.
-
This will lead to congestion in the traditional wireless local loop.
-
This will lead to degrading the surfing experience.
Why? The person downloading his email (within Lebanon) should not affect the web surfer!
Assuming 3 of your colleagues are simultaneously accessing the net, 1 checking his email, 1 checking your company's web site hosted at your local ISP, while the third is downloading a file from the web.
This will lead to congestion in the traditional wireless local loop. This will lead to degrading the surfing experience.
C. Where is your advantage if
you are connected through Cedarcom? Your broadband local loop i-Broadband will NOT be congested due to local traffic (e-mail, local web site). The user surfing the international net will still benefit from the full 128 Kbps purchased, as your local loop is i-Broadband 256 kbps!
Assuming you are using Cedarcom's i-Broadband 256 and your ISP is advanced technically, and have contracted 32 Kbps uplink, 128 Kbps downlink, i-Broadband will:
-
Allow you to browse cached pages at the full speed of 256 Kbps, not 64 or 128.
-
Will dramatically enhance your browsing experience, by eliminating local loop congestion caused by browsing peered local sites, or downloading local email hosted at your ISP (because of CoS and QoS features).
-
This will lead to savings in ISP's internet backbone costs!
-
This will lead to increased system's availability due to redundancy in downlink providers, rather than having 1 downlink dish at your site which has many points of failure.
