MPLS:
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a data communication standard that creates separate data paths for specific sequences of packets. Each packet is identified by a label that is encapsulated into each packet. This eliminates the need for Internet Protocol (IP) routers to look up the IP address of the next router in the network in order to forward the packet and as a result, speeds up the network.

MPLS works across various data protocols such as the Internet Protocol (IP), Asynchronous Transport Mode (ATM), and frame relay. MPLS forwards most packets at layer 2 (switching) instead of at layer 3 (routing) level.

MPLS makes it easier to manage network for quality of service (QoS) because packets can be prioritized by business importance. For example, Voice over IP (VoIP) can be prioritized over email and web browsing packets.




High Speed Internet Access via Ethernet
High Speed Internet Access via Ethernet local access connects end user Ethernet local area networks (LANs) to the Internet over a metropolitan wide area networks (WANs) at speeds ranging from 1 megabit per second (Mbps) up to 1 gigabit per second (Gbps). Internet access via Ethernet is an "always on", flat-rate service that offers faster, more cost effective Internet access than is available through traditional telecommunication access technologies such as T1 / T3 or E1 / E3 connections.

Internet access via Ethernet is becoming more and more popular to meet the growing demand for dynamic high bandwidth increases. For example, an increase from 10 to 100 Mbps can be accomplished by a High Speed Internet over Ethernet provider by simple changing the settings on already installed Ethernet switches. This scalability is cost effective for customers in that bandwidth can be increased or decreased quickly and easily, on demand, without the necessity of adding or changing datacom equipment as would be required with T1 / T3 or E1 / E3 local access lines.




DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) Service:
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) is a voice and data access service that supports both voice and data communication across a copper plain old telephone serivce (POTS) line and significantly increases the digital capacity of analog POTS access lines.

POTS local loop speed is increased by up to 50 times when a DSL modem is attached at the customer premise and a Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) is connected to the local access loop at the local telephone company central office (CO).

DSL service is delverd as Asymmetric DSL (ADSL) which is the most common application for Internet access, where fast downstream is required, but slow upstream is acceptable, and as Symmetric DSL (SDSL) which supports high speed access across the local access loop in both directions.




Wireless Internet Service:
Satellite Wireless Internet is a new way to access the Internet at high speeds from anywhere in the United States. Satellite Wireless Internet is delivered via satellites that orbit the Earth while transmitting and receiving high frequency radio internet data to a small dish located at the customer premise. This two-way satellite radio system is reliable, easy to set up and is mobile. You can move the subscriber satellite dish and re-connect with ease.

 History of DIRECTV

Written by: Rick Taylor - Dec 1, 2008


Headquartered in El Segundo, California, DIRECTV is the leading digital satellite service provider in the United States and provides HD Satellite TV service to over 17 million subsribers. The following is a rough summary of its impressive history:

Before 1984, satellites could carry only one communication channel per each transponder which limited satellites to a maximum of 24-32 communication channels per satellite - not enough bandwidth to support a commercially viable broadcasting system that could compete with established cable TV companies.

By 1984, Hughes had developed very high power satellites that could use digital compression (MPEG 2) standards that, for the first time, allowed multiple digital television channels to be sent through each individual satellite frequency. Hughes was approved by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to use their newly-developed technology to construct a Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) network.

In 1990, Hughes Electronics launched its DBS network, founded DIRECTV, and landed over one million satellite TV subscribers by the end of that year.

A DIRECTV/USSB partnership was formed in 1991, as DIRECTV's parent company, Hughes Electronics partnered with United States Satellite Broadcasting (USSB). USSB agreed to purchase 5 transponders aboard the future DIRECTV DBS-1 satellite to broadcast premium movie and pay per view offerings.

In 1993, a Hughes satellite was launched at the 101 degree west satellite location. This DBS-1, a high powered commercial satellite, carried a payload of 16 circularly polarized DBS Ku band transponders, each broadcasting at 120 watts per transponder. The new DIRECTV system quickly became one of the hottest-selling consumer electronics products of the year in 1994.

In the fall of 1994, a second DIRECTV satellite, DBS-2, was launched. This satellite enabled expansion of DIRECTV's programming to nearly 150 channels. In comparison, cable vision systems at that time offered an average of only 30 analog channels.

In the summer of 1994, DIRECTV introduced digital direct to home satellite service that was delivered via a small 18" satellite dish and set top receiver and offered two satellite services: (1) DIRECTV's delivery of most of the cable vision favorite channels and network feeds, and (2) USSB's delivery of premium services such as movie channels, such as HBO and Showtime, as well as pay-per-view sports.

By 1998, DIRECTV had over 4 million subscribers and purchased its partner, USSB, for over $1.3 billion. The acquisition provided DIRECTV customers with access to USSB's premier movie broadcasting and increased channel selection from 185 to 210. In July, DIRECTV invested $250 million in XM satellite radio.

In 1999, DIRECTV acquired Primestar, Inc. and its 2.3 million subscribers. As part of the deal, DIRECTV secured Primestar's satellite assets (11 transponders and two satellites) which added high-powered DBS frequencies to provide full coverage of the continental United States. In addition to the Primestar acquisition, DIRECTV launched a new satellite of its own, DIRECTV-1R on October 10, 1999.

In 2003, DIRECTV introduced a new high-definition video recorder jointly engineered by DIRECTV and Tivo as well as a second-generation set top box model through a partnership with Philips.

On November 11, 2003, DIRECTV added its 12 millionth subscriber.

DIRECTV currently has over 17 million subscribers and remains the top United States consumer satellite provider as it continues to expand its offerings through high-definition and entertainment packages such as NFL SUNDAY TICKET and TOTAL CHOICE® Mobile programming.
