MPLS Architecture



MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching) is a private IP VPN, combining the flexible any-to-any communication found on PSTN or Internet with the reliability, quality and security delivered via Private Line, Frame Relay or ATM services.


It offers differentiated performance levels and prioritisation of delay and non-delay sensitive traffic as well as voice and multimedia applications - all on a single network. A range of management options are available including supply and management of Customer Premise Equipment (CPE), providing a fully managed solution. Alternatively unmanaged options are also available to provide companies with the flexibility to manage their own CPE.


Who uses MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching)?

This solution is ideal for any type or size of company or organisation. It could be used by a start-up company establishing its first network or an organisation seeking to upgrade from private circuits or other networking options.


What can I do with MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching)?

MPLS architecture is the latest technology and is ideal for customers requiring any-to-any connectivity with a suite of access options - everything from mobile through dial and ADSL, to high speed Gigabit fixed access circuits. MPLS with Class of Service enables customers to prioritise time critical applications, to ensure they perform as expected, without affecting end user performance.


What are the benefits of MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching)?

A Class of Service enabled network allows customers to use a single IP networking infrastructure to support multiple applications such as voice, data and video. Class of Service is essential if you want to guarantee the performance of your time critical applications such as voice.

Why choose C.C.S.

We have built and managed WAN's (Wide Area Networks) for a number of large enterprises and corporations in the Banking, Manufacturing and Airline sectors using MPLS architecture technologies. Optimising an IP VPN Service can be challenging. Matching applications with the class of service requirements, defining and optimising the routing protocol architecture, migrating from Data Networks and troubleshooting inter-working problems can all add to the complexity. C.C.S. can assist customers with its extensive in-depth expertise in MPLS VPNs and IP VPN Class of Service. C.C.S. can offer customers pre implementation design guidance, migration planning and detailed service specification.
