How Much Bandwidth for VoIP Do You Really Need?
Today's applications demand more bandwidth than ever. IT professionals constantly have to respond to those bandwidth needs reliably and affordably. To accurately determine how much bandwidth your business needs, you need to assess the factors that impact network performance.
Consider the following:
- How many people use the network?
- What is the network used for?
- Are employees accessing applications in the cloud or a data center?
- Do users connect to branch locations via a vast area network (WAN)?
- What core applications are running, and how bandwidth-intensive is each? (e.g., email versus video streaming)
- Are secure virtual private network (VPN) connections needed?
- Does your company need encryption for compliance purposes?
