| Securicor decided not to use ADSL links for
its larger branch offices and is instead using the more expensive
BT MPLS (multi-protocol label switching) wide area network
product. This form of IP VPN offers greater quality of service
for larger numbers of users and higher bandwidth applications
such as videoconferencing and voice over IP.
Michael Greest, head of technical support at Securicor Security,
said, "It would have been uneconomical for our smaller
branches to install a leased line to connect to head office,
and instead we trialed the managed VPN service from VPlus
over six months, which proved reliable and cost-effective."
