EFM
Businesses can reduce their inter branch telecommunications costs by over 70%* by connecting their local and interstate branches to the TPG SOUL network using the latest EFM (Ethernet in the First Mile) Technology.
Your business will be able to run Data, Voice and Video across a single non-contended, QoS enabled connection at up 10Mbps from $599 per month after installation. This will allow you to simplify your network infrastructure by using the latest in converged communications rather than stay with more expensive and outdated technology from your current carrier and provider.
EFM is reliable and is often used as a primary connection however many organizations are now using it as a fail over redundant link to give carrier diversity for business critical situations.
