Below is an introduction to several common types of international network leased lines, along with their respective advantages and disadvantages.

1. IPLC International Network Leased Line

This type of leased line offers numerous advantages. First, it provides high reliability and security through dedicated bandwidth, ensuring stable and secure data transmission. Second, it features low latency, making it ideal for applications with strict network quality requirements, such as video conferencing and real-time data transfer. Additionally, it offers global coverage, meeting the communication needs of global enterprises. Enterprises can also flexibly choose bandwidth according to their needs to support data transmission of varying scales. Moreover, IPLC lines typically come with an SLA (Service Level Agreement) guarantee, ensuring high availability and reliability.

However, it also has drawbacks. The costs for construction, rental, and maintenance are relatively high, which may pose a significant expense for some enterprises. Furthermore, the deployment cycle is lengthy, and it is limited by geographical locations, meaning rapid deployment may not be possible in certain regions.

2. IEPL International Ethernet Leased Line

Based on Ethernet technology, the IEPL international Ethernet leased line is characterized by high bandwidth and low latency, delivering excellent network transmission experiences for enterprises. It is also cost-effective, free from network capacity limitations, and enables fast deployment, making it more accessible for businesses.

Nevertheless, it has limitations. Its coverage is relatively narrow, potentially unsuitable for all regions. In terms of security, enterprises need to implement additional measures to safeguard data transmission.

3. MPLS International Network Leased Line

The MPLS international network leased line stands out for its powerful traffic control capabilities, enabling traffic isolation and priority management for different services to ensure orderly operation of enterprise applications. It is highly adaptable and fast to deploy, supporting multiple communication methods such as voice, data, and video to meet diverse enterprise needs.

However, it relies heavily on network quality and is susceptible to environmental impacts—poor network conditions can degrade performance. It also has relatively lower inherent security, requiring enterprises to adopt extra measures to protect data.

4. SD-WAN International Network Leased Line

The SD-WAN international network leased line is renowned for its high flexibility, featuring easy management, fast deployment, and low costs. It supports multiple security protocols and can select optimal transmission paths based on application requirements, enhancing network efficiency. Additionally, it provides extensive global access points, facilitating flexible expansion of enterprise network scales.

However, its performance is influenced by internet network quality. Unstable networks may lead to performance issues that disrupt normal business operations.
