Advantages of Ethernet over Copper
Ethernet over Copper (EoC) is a type of Ethernet in the first mile cable that uses twisted copper telephone wire pairs that are normally already located in numerous service locations. It is generally quicker to provision EoC than to develop brand-new fiber circuits in older service areas.
Ethernet over Copper is a fully grown and dependable technology providing the exact same features as traditional T1 lines: dedicated, symmetrical, and full duplex. Its main advantage is that Ethernet over Copper is provided over copper pairs of DS0 so EoC does not need costly fiber build outs. One more fantastic benefit over conventional T1 lines is that an Ethernet circuit is much easier to update. With the standard bonded T1, an upgrade in circuit bandwidth can take months due to the fact that the local phone company has to install additional loops. With an Ethernet circuit, the port bandwidth could typically be increased as just a configuration change at the central office. Also, Ethernet over Copper runs over several pairs of copper so if one pair drops, the data transfer available does drop but you do not loose the entire circuit as you would with a T1 line. Ethernet over Copper costs is much less than that of bonded T1 circuits of the same speed. EoC circuits have a Service Level Agreement (SLA) similar to T1 lines generally with the exact identical terms.
