Point to Point Line Price and Service Referrals

Definition of Point to Point:Point-to-Point telecommunications is most recently (2003) referenced regarding wireless data communications for Internet or Voice over IP via radio frequencies in the multi-gigahertz range. It also includes technologies such as laser for telecommunications but in all cases expects that the transmission medium is line of sight and capable of being fairly tightly beamed from transmitter to receiver.

Concerning  hubs and switches, a hub provides a point to multipoint (or multipoint) circuit which separates the total bandwidth supplied by the hub among each client node. A switch on the other hand provides a series of point-to-point circuits, via microsegmentation, which enables each client node to have a dedicated circuit and the additional advantage of having full-duplex connections.
