In Their Own Words:

"I ready an article a few months ago about Ethernet supplanting T1/DS3 services in the commercial high speed Internet market. The problem is, there isn't a way for a company to find out if Ethernet is available in their building without a web site such as ShopforEthernet.com. The site is easy to use, doesn't force me to enter in my contact information to see availability, and the consultant who contacted me (at my request) was very courteous and professional. I recommend this site to anyone looking for fast Ethernet broadband services."

How is this tool valuable?

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

How does this tool work?
  1. Simply enter your address in the from above.
  2. A map with your location and markers will be displayed. The markers tell you the surrounding buildings which have been "lit" by some major telecom service providers, such as XO, Level 3 and Telnes.
  3. If you enter your contact information, our staff of Ethernet service experts will contact you about the service you are interested in.

Why is Metro Ethernet Important to Elmsford New York Businesses?

When Elmsford New York businesses connect to the Internet, they are in essence accessing the ISP's network by way of a Local Loop provided by the Local Phone Company, as illustrated below:

Regular SONET

"Regular" (or SONET) connections include DS1, (T1), Bonded DS1, DS3 (T3), Frame Relay, and OCX. Each service actually requires the cooperation of the two companies between you and the Internet (the Local Phone Company and your ISP). Having two companies in between you and the Internet adds cost to the equation, not to mention multiple points of failure.

Connecting directly to your ISP is obviously ideal in that it reduces cost and increases the amount of speed your ISP can provide. Ethernet technology allows business to "plug" directly in to their ISP of choice providing that the customer is within a close physical proximity to the ISP's access point, or what we call "Lit Building". Using Ethernet, your connection to the Internet will look like this:

Ethernet Connection

Ethernet technology makes it possible for businesses who reside close to the physical Lit Buildings of ISPs to hop directly on to their networks. The ISP is then able to control the quality of the customer's LAN connection to the outside world, or to other points within the network.
