Should You Implement Efm For Your Business?

Whenever making acquisitions for my organisation I always ask myself

, 'will this technology make working less stressful and/or improve efficiency within the workplace?'

For organisations who are experiencing that the speed of their internet connection is not fast enough and a constant struggle, then Ethernet in the First Mile (or EFM as it is commonly referred to) is doubtlessly worth looking at.

Why your company could benefit from improved bandwidth than your existing broadband solution is delivering.

Faster Internet Speeds, Working Remotely, VoIP and much improved Video Conferencing need a certain amount of bandwidth to run as intended and EFM will meet your requirements.

Faster Internet Connection, this is what organisations want and need increased levels of as technology and the Internet grows. Faster broadband speeds always means a much improved ability to increase efficiency and productivity.

Home Remote Working is becoming more widespread, with more businesses allowing their employees to work from home. The ability for staff to connect to computers in the workplace from home demands good bandwidth and EFM meets the need.

VoIP (Voice-over-IP) needs a symmetric connection that's both dedicated and stable. EFM will provide this enabling your organisation to cut down on the phone bills as well as making a reduction on or even getting rid of ISDN circuit rental costs.

Business to business Video Conferencing is becoming more popular and with Ethernet First Mile you will have the bandwidth for this to be a smooth service for members of your company.

Differences that I need consider when finding a supplier for Ethernet First Mile?

Is EFM actually available. In a few locations you may be required to go with fibre-optic leased lines as another option as EFM is not available. In places where Ethernet First Mile is an option there could possibly be more than just one competing provider.

Pricing is always something to give consideration to. Different providers can charge different prices and it's worth checking on the difference.

For companies reliability is nearly always needed. Some Ethernet in the First Mile solutions rely on single line cards meaning you may suffer a complete loss of service (instead of a reduced connection speed) if the local telephone exchange have an unexpected problem with a particular piece of hardware.

Some suppliers of Ethernet First Mile circuitry are able to offer another option so that if the same piece of equipment breaks down you will have a reduced throughput instead of a complete failure, so that you're able to carry on sending and receiving data using your connection. The more resilient option will cost more, but it might be worth the the higher

price when you're running a business.

Another factor for consideration is the number of copper wire pairs. EFM can be based on as many as 8 copper pairs. With an increased number of copper pair comes an increase in price, but also an improvement in the higher top end speeds which can be as much as 35Mbit/s.
