Product Description

Bitstream MB is designed to address the major challenges facing Service Providers in how best to meet the increasing demand from consumers and businesses for bandwidth, while at the same time carefully managing costs, and also maintaining control over quality of service. Bitstream allows you greater control over your own broadband product definition and comprises of two elements.

The first element consists of DSL port connection capable of delivering 8Mb initially at NGN enabled exchanges. The second element consists of dedicated VLANs delivering the aggregated Bitstream traffic over your Bitstream Ethernet Connection Service. This proposition leverages the benefits of eircom’s Next Generation Network and will allow you greater control over your costs and broadband product offerings. Bitstream MB is capacity managed by eircom wholesale to avoid congestion; therefore no planning or contention ratios apply to these products. This provides you with the capability to define your contention ratios.

Bitstream MB also allows us to introduce an innovative pricing model that is cost effective and flexible. Bitstream MB pricing consists of two elements, a fixed port rental price is applied to each end customer connection and a variable usage charge is applied based on the aggregate capacity used over the dedicated VLAN.
