	Fiber Too Expensive? Try EoC As business applications become more and more demanding and dependent on IP and Ethernet protocols, Carrier Ethernet has emerged as the WAN technology of choice for enterprise access. Carrier Ethernet promises an efficient, simple, scalable and cost-effective solution whether you are using it for dedicated internet access, connections to cloud applications, or VPN. Ethernet for business applications is estimated to grow substantially through 2015. Of course, fiber optic connectivity is the preferred method service, but Ethernet over Copper (EoC) has become a strategic choice as well for its competitive price and service. There are a few main reasons why companies may choose EoC, among them : 1. It’s Ethernet. Some new technologies promising broadband service may only be used for internet access or basic voice service. Ethernet meets business-class symmetric service requirements, providing scalable, reliable and manageable features. EoC delivers the service businesses have come to expect. 2. Fiber options may be very limited. Currently only about 30% of businesses have access to fiber. The cost to upgrade is very expensive, and it takes anywhere from 6-18 months to install. Many companies do not want to wait that long, or invest so much money in the service. Most facilities are connected to the legacy copper voice network, which makes it easy to transition to EoC in a matter of weeks. Many providers have found they can increase speeds ten-fold with EoC, which may be enough for most companies. 3. EoC is on par with fiber. Nearly all service providers have multiple service classes, including many premium products, in order to deliver the customer experience your company needs. Most of them are able to provide a service equal to fiber-based Ethernet services. 4. Innovations in technology have advanced EoC capabilities. New generations of EoC edge and aggregation equipment have increased capabilities to over 15 Mbps symmetric per copper pair, and providers can now deploy 200+ Mbps Ethernet. This gives you the service at a fraction of the cost. The popularity of carrier Ethernet for business WAN service creates the demand that can’t be completely met with fiber. Advances in EoC give businesses a good alternative that provides equal service at a fraction of the cost.

And as GeoQuote is simply an information service, so you get just that - information without the sales pitch. No more long high pressure sales conversations with your local phone company!

GeoQuote is currently used by ShopForT1.com and several other licensees. Once you have filled out all the information, you will receive an instant quote. Then an agent will contact you. Don’t panic about that! The agent is not there to pressure you. They will have the expertise and knowledge to to further investigate the services and carriers that you are interested in. We strongly suggest you use an agent in your search for service as well as using a broker to sign up once you have chosen a service. It is common for people to think they can “beat the system” by contacting a broker, getting the pricing and information, and going straight to the provider. This can actually work against you, don’t do it! Brokers are paid by the carriers, so they do not mark up the price of any service. They offer the same price you would get if you went directly to the carrier.

The biggest advantage of ordering through a broker, other than their expertise, is that you will have another layer of customer service. If the carrier you choose is not living up to your expectations, you can go back to your agent or broker. Since they work with each carrier for many customers, they are more likely to get resolution for any problems you may have. It is our opinion you can’t afford NOT to use GeoQuote for real time pricing and an agent/broker to help with your order!
