MPLS

What is MPLS?

MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching) isn’t a type of connection; it’s a technique used to enhance your customer’s existing network. Essentially, it sorts through and prioritises their data based on the service they already have.

For most connections, the networks need to look inside every data packet at each router to know where it’s going. With this type of network, the data is labelled so that routers know exactly where to send the data without having to open it up.

This technique frees up bandwidth whilst linking up your customer workforce, ensuring both resources and network are used and shared effortlessly.
