In Their Own Words:

"Little did I know that gigabit Ethernet was available here in Harlingen, well, at least in my building anyway. After seeing the little pink "marker" on my building on the map, I requested more information from ShopforEthernet.com. In less than 5 minutes I was on the phone talking to a live human being who was able to contact the carrier and have an official quote on my desk the next business day. You're not going to find this kind of service or value anywhere else. I know. I've looked!"

How does this tool work?
  1. Enter your building address in the form above.
  2. A map with markers will be displayed. That tells you that how many buildings have been "lit" by the major telecom service providers in your area.
  3. If you would like to learn more, you'll be able to enter you contact information to receive a phone call from our staff of Ethernet service experts.

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.
  • 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.
  • substantially upgrade their current broadband connections.
  • establish a direct relationship with a provider without the local Bell in the equation.

Why is Metro Ethernet Important to Harlingen Texas Businesses?

"Regular" connections include T1, DSL, Bonded DS1, T3, OCX and Frame Relay. Each service requires the Local Phone Company and your ISP to connect you and the Internet. That adds extra expense to the equation and increases the possiblity of multiple points of failure, as illustrated below:

Regular SONET

By using Ethernet technology, a Harlingen Texas business is able to "plug" directyl in to its Internet service provider. It reduces costs and increases the amount of speed the ISP can provide. The connection will look like this:
