IEC-x Switched Broadband Internet Protocol (IP) Service

Definition and Overview

Definition

Switched broadband IP service represents an innovative means of offering premium, IP–based data communication services as an adjunct to both Internet and virtual private network (VPN) services. The switched broadband IP service architecture enables circuit-grade, end-to-end IP tunnels to be established on demand at user-selected bandwidths, between selected IP addresses, and through today's public switched telephone networks (PSTNs). By encapsulating individual IP packet streams within end-to-end switched circuits, this service architecture offers users premium IP service with a unique set of bandwidth, quality of service (QoS), security, tracking, and billing features.

Overview

This tutorial provides an overview of an innovative service architecture that enables various types of carrier-switching infrastructures to deliver switched broadband IP services.
