FAQs
A dedicated internet connection dedicates a specific amount of bandwidth that is not shared with anyone else other than the users of that physical circuit. This ensures your internet connection performs at a consistent service level regardless of the time of day or number of users online in the area. In addition to dedicated bandwidth, performance metrics including network latency, packet loss, uptime, jitter and repair timeframes are guaranteed with service level agreements.
Internet Dedicated provides enterprise-grade, dedicated internet connection owned by Verizon to support near real-time applications and public/private networking solutions. The dedicated connections are delivered via Ethernet or private-line circuits not shared with other customers to provide guaranteed bandwidth; service level agreements and quality of service (QoS), including 100% availability; and symmetrical speeds.
A broadband internet connection is a shared network, with many different users in an area sharing a common larger connection. The amount of bandwidth offered is only up to the maximum bandwidth or package speed available, with no guarantees on what speed you actually get or the quality of the connection. Speed is determined by network traffic and congestion, which can vary greatly depending on the location or time of day.
Ultimately, which one you choose depends on your applications, goals, budget, uptime requirements and the size of your organization. In short, dedicated internet provides guaranteed performance and reliability with a higher cost, while broadband offers lower cost with potential areas of congestion and performance issues.
Bandwidth is often mistaken for internet speed. Bandwidth is the volume of information that can be sent over a connection calculated as volume per second, such as megabits per second (Mbps). So bandwidth is how much information you receive every second.
Speed is how fast that information is received or downloaded. As an example, when you fill a bathtub with water, if the bathtub faucet has a wide opening, more water can flow at a faster rate than if it had a narrower faucet. Think of the amount of water as the bandwidth and the rate that the water flows as the speed.
