Have you ever noticed that sometimes the internet connection becomes unstable for a while, data transfer or uploading is slow or simply stops? When this happens, it means that we are sharing our internet connection with other internet users in the area. Most of the time this happens during peak internet hours, which can lead to frustration and work interruptions for some people.
To avoid this risk for businesses that rely on the internet as their main tool for communicating with customers and transferring company data, many organisations use corporate internet instead of home internet because corporate internet is designed to transfer large amounts of data for businesses or organisations. It is very similar to home internet, but there are a number of differences, especially in terms of speed. Corporate internet provides a high-speed connection via a dedicated line with its own bandwidth that does not have to be shared with other signals. This leads to high stability and security [1].
The next important question is, if the enterprise needs a strong internet signal with appropriate features, what kind of internet is suitable for enterprise work? This article will try to answer this question for you.
Get to know the corporate internet
Therefore, if a company’s work depends on a strong internet signal, the internet signal is an important weapon in business, as the internet and online communication create an effective link between companies and the world. This is an important competitive tool in the age of a borderless economy. Therefore, it is important for entrepreneurs to understand the importance of the corporate internet.
Corporate Internet is an Internet system designed for corporate use. There are designs or services that are tailored to the different needs of individual organisations. For example, organisations that need a special security system and a dedicated team, organisations that need high speed and a very stable internet, or organisations that need to constantly transmit large amounts of data abroad. Based on such requirements, the corporate internet system is therefore developed with a special function or tailored to the needs of entrepreneurs. This makes the business internet easy to use, convenient and can solve problems on the spot.
How does the internet in companies differ from the internet at home?
For a better understanding, you can compare the differences between a company’s internet and the internet at home with a “public street” that is open and accessible to everyone. Anyone can enter and leave it at any time. Even if it is a big street, the street can suddenly become congested when many people enter and leave at the same time, causing people to walk more slowly. Similarly, if many private users are using the internet at the same time: Data transmission is delayed or there are signal interruptions because bandwidth is being used over the same port.
On the other hand, the internet for businesses can be compared to a “private road” that has been designed and calculated for a certain number of users. The advantage of this concept is that the size of the street can be adjusted or the number of users can be recalculated for each period. There is a dedicated bandwidth for the entrepreneurs, while the speed can be guaranteed according to the speed package without having to share the internet signal with other organisations. The result is smooth and efficient data transmission for businesses.
The efficiency of the corporate internet makes it more suitable for businesses than the home internet. Until now, the current corporate internet seemed to be suitable only for large organisations. However, NT or National Telecom Public Company Limited, the association of TOT and CAT with more than 65 years of experience, now provides internet services for small and medium enterprises for various and efficient applications.
