"Cost-effective. The use of 10/100/1000Mbps gigabit fiber switches can reduce costs. For buildings with fiber optics, fiber-optic Ethernet connections are much less expensive than circuit connections based on DS3 or high-speed ATM services, at the meanwhile the whole network access is also more efficient. The application of 10/100/1000Mbps fiber switch efficiently delivers the commitment of latency, jitter, and bandwidth levels. To submit user-specified latency and jitter levels, fiber Ethernet networks utilize technologies developed in the IETF. When a packet is transmitted into the network, the information in the packet will be used to assign the packet to a specific service category. In the contract users can also specify certain bandwidth, and the network operator guarantee such bandwidth by restricting the number of guaranteed services within the network capacity range."
