MPLS - Key Features

Jargon Buster

What is QoS?

QoS (Quality of Service) is the ability to set different priorities in the data flow of a network and guarantee high performance of critical applications. Multiple applications will often run simultaneously over a network. QoS ensures that the network gives priority to the business's priorities.

MPLS - Key Benefits


Scalable to your changing needs
In today's business environment, you need to be able to respond quickly to change. With MPLS you can introduce new applications, deploy additional sites and even move location simply and cost-effectively. Your WAN logically becomes a LAN. A remote site or home office is as easy to connect into the LAN at Headquarters as the PC in the office down the corridor.

Improved application performance
Instead of classing traffic indiscriminately, MPLS can optimise performance of your data and deliver guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS). Bandwidth priority can be given to business critical applications or delay sensitive traffic such as VoIP. Your site-to-site traffic will not pass over the Internet meaning higher network security and faster response for your applications.

Resilient, reliable networking
If a major link in the MPLS network goes down, your traffic will quickly route to an alternative path, minimising service downtime. If an entire site has an outage, the other locations are not affected. Your traffic is also monitored and proactively managed, enabling us to back the service with industry-leading Service Level Guarantees.

Boosting productivity
Your applications will perform more efficiently and therefore improve staff outputs, service levels, and the overall customer experience. By simplifying your IT infrastructure and administration, IT staff can focus on functions more closely related to the everyday running of your business.
