WAN Concepts
Often large number of choices for WAN connections, but:
- none of them good enough
- all of them too expensive
- too few options in many areas of the state
Do you want just a connection to “the Internet” or a private/regional network with one or more shared connections to “the Internet”?
Choices include: 28.8 Kb/sec, 56 Kb/sec, ISDN (64 or 128 Kb/sec), T1 (1.5 Mb/sec), Frame Relay, T3 (45 Mb/sec), NMLI, OC3 (155 Mb/sec)
