10 Gig-E IP Transit Prices

Firstly, I want to quote this : "Tata Communications says that its recently launched 10 Gig-E service now offers large capacity users a saving of up to 60% per megabit of traffic when compared to traditional Gigabit Ethernet services" (Commsday). Now, we might want to ask ourselves, without having to call any sales personal, how much does it actually cost? Price is something strongly not linear :-D .. it depends on this, that, these, and those. And often such factors can not be explained easily (if not at all :-D). Na Und? just want to know how much! :-D ... okay, look at the table below, it's a very simple model.

Tata's 10 GigE Services

Just read a news entry mentioning Tata's new service platform: global 10 GigE (10 Gbps Ethernet) services, available at 25 major cities in 11 countries. Jakarta isn't in the list, but Singapore is of course inside. The service covers both 10 GigE LAN PHY and WAN PHY at selectable grade of availability ranging from 99.5% (unprotected circuits) to 99.9% (protected circuits). The service features MEF 6.1 defined Ethernet Private Line (EPL) point to point configuration so that customers’ data is isolated and travels on its own Ethernet pipe, is a truly dedicated, secure service.
