Medical Imaging Transmission
Medical images, such as those generated by Teleradiology equipment,
have large file sizes due to high resolution. Rapid transmission
between hospitals and medical centers requires high availability,
high bandwidth telecommunication services. For smaller offices
or infrequent use, a T1 data line might easily suffice. For medium
and larger facilities, DS3 or Ethernet fiber optic carriers are
recommended.
How is PoE used for IP Phones?
PoE or Power over Ethernet is a standard that defines a way to
transmit electric power to network devices as well as information
packets. When PoE equipment is installed in equipment lockers,
an IP telephone gets its power from the network and does not need
a separate AC power supply.
What does flooding mean?
Flooding is a Ethernet process whereby switches that do not know
the destination for data packets they receive send that data to
all ports and wait for a reply to discover the actual address.
What is a Service Level Agreement?
An SLA or Service Level Agreement is often part of the contract
between a business and telecom carrier for line services such
as carrier Ethernet.The SLA spells out the expected availability
of the line service and what penalties the carrier is liable for
if the line doesn't perform as stated.
What is Ethernet over Fiber?
Ethernet over Fiber or EoF means transporting Ethernet protocol
signals over metro distance or long haul circuits, using IP protocol
networks. Your interface is a standard Ethernet jack from the
carrier supplied premesis equipment.
