Higher bandwidth solution
The solution was up and running in
days and throughput between each
site either doubled to 4 Mbps or OPINION
quadrupled to 8Mbps with 99.999
per cent availability across paths that
were obstructed by trees, buildings
and open terrain. The result is a
higher bandwidth solution that has
brought significantly more value to
Weymouth College for less money
than its existing Telco LES solution.
New applications, such as voice-
over-IP (VOIP) and streaming video
can now be accommodated and
the college estimates that it will
save approximately ?45,624 over
the first three years.
This is just one example of where

bring significant benefit. Other
applications include emergency
services that need to communicate
with other local services, business
parks with multiple serviced office
buildings and regional stores or
banks with multiple locations. At
