Static IP FTTx Product Introduction

FTTx is a service that connects from the Chunghwa Telecom IDC and uses a fiber ring to connect to optical line distribution frames, communities, buildings or homes. It uses network equipment with Ethernet or VDSL technology to provide customers with high speed broadband circuits for data transfer. Static IP FTTx uses FTTx and provides 6 or 2 Static IPs to satisfy enterprise customer's need for high speed Internet access and enterprise Static IP.

Static IP FTTx Features

I. High speed Internet service

• Provides high upload and download speeds, effectively shortening the time needed to send/receive E-mails and transfer files, and also increases data search and operational efficiency.
• The network architecture has built in protection mechanisms so that if the backbone circuit malfunctions, the system activates the redundant circuit, minimizing the service interruption.
• The network architecture is simple; it does not require levels of conversion, reduces barrier points and increases transmission efficiency.
• Uses the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet interface standard; the customer's PC only requires an Ethernet card to connect to the Internet.

II. Enterprise Static IP Applications

• Directly assigns the customer 6 or 2 usable Static IP and does not use the PPPoE or DHCP method.
• Existing HiNet Static IP ADSL Bridging Mode (3 Static IPs) customers can keep their original Static IPs when upgraded to FTTx Bridging Mode.
• With a real Static IP connection, there are no worries about setting up a website; it also supports DNS reverse domain and MX Record, achieving the convenience of "booting up equals accessing the site."
• Stable and uninterrupted enterprise Internet service, achieving high quality service as the machine boots up.
• Excellent international connection bandwidth service; HiNet has Taiwan's largest international connection bandwidth.
• Professional technicians provide 24 hour rigorous monitoring, allowing customers to enjoy enterprise level maintenance and operational quality.

Static IP ADSL Product Introduction

ADSL Internet service has two ways of acquiring an IP: "static" and "non-static". ADSL "static" refers to a situation where the ISP directly assigns several "static real IP" to the customer, so that customers need only to set the Static IP on their computers and network devices to achieve the goal of "connected as booted up." ADSL "non-static" uses the "PPPoE" or "DHCP" method to provide Internet service, where the IP assigned by the ISP is different every time; that's why it is called "non-static".

HiNet Static IP ADSL is divided into two service types: "Routing Mode" and "Bridging Mode".

ADSL Routing Mode's default gateway setting is set on ATU-R; IP assigning ranges from 8 to 32. The "usable number of IP" for ADSL Routing Mode is the assigned IP numbers minus three. For example, 4M/1M Routing Mode assigns 16 Static IPs, but the number of IP that customers can actually set on their computers is 13.

ADSL Bridging Mode's default gateway is not on the ATU-R, it's on the remote ISP IDC equipment (BRAS). There are two major differences between ADSL Bridging Mode and Routing Mode:

• The number of IP assigned to ADSL Bridging Mode is the number of "actual usable IP", there is no minus 3 IPs.
• The number of IP assigned to ADSL Bridging Mode is static, limited to 3, unlike the Routing Mode where it can be expanded from 8 to 32.

Static IP ADSL Features

I. Enterprise level Static IP applications

• Directly assigns 3 or 8 to 32(Routing Mode) Static IPs, and does not use the PPPoE or DHCP method.
• Original HiNet ADSL static Bridging Mode (3 Static IPs) customers can keep their original Static IPs when upgraded to FTTx Bridging Mode.
• With a real Static IP connection, there are no worries about setting up a website; it also supports DNS reverse domain and MX Record, achieving the convenience of "booting up equals accessing the site."
• Stable and uninterrupted enterprise Internet service, achieving high quality service as the machine boots up.
• Excellent international connection bandwidth service; HiNet has Taiwan's largest international connection bandwidth.
• Professional technicians provide 24 hour rigorous monitoring, allowing customers to enjoy enterprise level maintenance and operation quality.

II. Dedicated 4M/1M high priority service

• "4M/1M" is a dedicated speed customized for enterprise customers; it is only dedicated to ADSL static.
• HiNet ADSL "4M/1M" comes in Bridging Mode (3 Static IPs) and Routing Mode (16 Static IPs), satisfying customer's diverse Internet environment and budget needs.
• The maximum upload speed is as high as 1Mbps, reducing the time needed to send/receive E-mail and transfer files, while simultaneously increasing data search efficiency and lowering enterprise TCO (total cost of ownership) costs and increasing operational efficiency.
• 4M/1M has high priority for circuit transmission and is able to replace "512k/512k" to perform video conferencing or VoIP.

Dedicated Line Product Introduction

HiNet Dedicated Line is a high quality Internet product for enterprise customers (such as Internet brokerage, Internet banking and E-commerce websites) that really provides a bandwidth guarantee. It uses a dedicated data line to achieve year long Internet connection and dedicated circuits to provide various types of Internet application services. Its connection quality is the most stable and reliable, and it enjoys the highest priority for domestic and international bandwidth usage; not only is the chance of the dedicated line malfunctioning small, load-balance technology or 1+1 redundant mechanisms can be used in conjunction with it, simultaneously providing multiple guarantees for Internet bandwidth.

In terms of product functions, in order to help enterprise customers enhance network security and reduce data security construction costs, an online security protection project was planned, enabling enterprise Internet customers to select an IPS value-added service to help the enterprise filter of Internet worms, hacker intrusions and Internet viruses etc. at the HiNet end.

Dedicated Line Features

I. Enterprise level highest quality Internet service

The circuit has standard telecommunication Qos management and SLA service guarantees to choose from; it also has the highest priority for domestic/international bandwidth use and a second routing is provided for dredging when the bandwidth is congested. It is connected directly to the backbone domestically so that connection stability is extremely high.

II. Best selection for Internet reliability

It provides a complete Internet redundancy mechanism; the circuit is adjusted so it can loop in different routings; its ring protection is less than 50ms (MS-SPRING, SNCP).

FTTB Enterprise Product Introduction

FTTx is a common name for "new generation user fiber optic network" - some of the more frequently seen ones include FTTB (Fiber To The Building) and FTTH (Fiber To The Home). The transmission method uses fiber optics to replace traditional copper wires; its advantages include high flexibility for bandwidth changes and simple Internet connection. Because FTTx uses ring architecture and has automatic ring redundancy devices and functions, if any point or segment in the ring malfunctions, it automatically switches ring status and avoid total disconnection or interruptions and circuit instabilities due to the malfunction of devices on a single point. FTTx also has an Ethernet Base construction ring feature; the average static dedicated line requires a V.35 specification interface, but FTTx does not need any additional conversion interface to connect. This reduces enterprises interface equipment costs.

In terms of product planning, HiNet provides different levels of products for different enterprise user needs. "Enterprise type" has CoS (Class of Service) quality control and a higher bandwidth priority, ensuring data transmission stability and transmission quality is less likely to be affected by changing traffic flow. In addition, HiNet also provides enterprise customers with domestic/international cross-network transmission quality similar to static dedicated lines, able to achieve enterprise level application standards. It is suitable for enterprises with high-end Internet applications: such as technological, financial, banking and securities industries, multimedia video service applications industry, ICP (Internet Content Provider), schools, government agencies and medium/large enterprises. The number of Static IP assigned to "Enterprise type" is also more flexible than other types.
