MPLS VPNs transport layer 2 packets across the network and encapsulate transport protocols such as ATM, Ethernet, and SONET, allowing MPLS networks to seemlessly upgrade and replace legacy layer 2 networks without requiring network reconfiguration or using protocols higher than layer 2. In comparison, layer 3 VPNs must use the layer 3 Internet Protocol (IP).

An Internet T3 (also spelled Internet T-3) is a broadband Internet connection that transfers signals at a rate of 45 Mbps. Both Internet T1 and T3 services are highly-reliable circuits that are usually guaranteed by a Service Level Agreement.

Hosted Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is a voice and data technology that supports several telecommunications protocols, such as Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and Internet Protocol (IP), that that makes it easy for people to use the Internet to make telephone calls while saving money on premise hardware.

Ethernet can be used to connect twisted copper pair networks and to connect fiber optic cable networks.

Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a data network protocol that uses Class of Service (CoS) to prioritize different types of data packets across a shared network to facilitate the convergence of voice, video and data applications.

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.

Asymetric DSL (ADSL) allows more bandwidth to move data toward the end user (multimedia and text) than from the end user (mostly keystrokes and mouse behavior) to the Internet.
