YouTube, as one of the world’s largest video-sharing platforms, serves as a crucial channel for foreign trade enterprises to promote their products and for researchers to conduct academic studies and gather information. However, due to various restrictions imposed by the Chinese network environment and policies, direct access to YouTube is not possible. In this context, foreign trade enterprises and research institutions need to find a legal and viable way to access YouTube, and the solution lies in the use of international dedicated network.

Currently, there are two main forms of international dedicated network commonly chosen by enterprises: MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) and SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network). Both have their pros and cons, and the following discussion will delve into the advantages and disadvantages of each.

MPLS International Dedicated Network: Adopting MPLS as an international network dedicated line is a widely recognized and legitimate method for accessing YouTube. Its outstanding features include network stability and low latency, ensuring a smooth video-watching experience for users. However, the relatively high cost of this method cannot be ignored, making it less cost-effective for small and medium-sized enterprises.

SD-WAN International Dedicated Network: In recent years, the emergence of SD-WAN as an international dedicated network has provided a new solution to the high cost associated with MPLS. SD-WAN maintains the stability and low latency of MPLS networks while being more budget-friendly. This makes SD-WAN the preferred choice for small and medium-sized enterprises looking to expand internationally. Deploying an SD-WAN dedicated network is simple and convenient, requiring only a well-configured device to connect to the user’s local network and configure the server and IP addresses, allowing for easy online access within minutes.

In summary, SD-WAN dedicated network offer the most cost-effective and efficient means for foreign trade enterprises to access YouTube. Foreign trade enterprises and research institutions in need should closely follow this innovative tool, using international dedicated network to establish a global channel for business expansion and broaden their business horizons.
