The low cost of Ethernet First Mile (EFM) has provided small business with access to cheap leased lines with highly resilient guaranteed internet connectivity, providing new opportunities for mission-critical applications such as VPN, VoIP and RDP.
Ethernet First Mile (EFM) is an Ethernet Internet service provided over multiple copper lines, so service continues on the remaining lines if one line fails. In addition the service is guaranteed with an SLA and 6 hour fix time.
Unlike xDSL services, EFM is uncontended, and provides symmetrical bandwidth, so is suitable for upstream bandwidth hungry applications.
