One Ring Networks - Business Internet Provider BUSINESS Need? How Much BANDWIDTH Does Your

Calculating Internet Speed Requirements

Deciding what amount of bandwidth is right for your business is incredibly difficult. We know that you can’t be an expert in the technical aspect of internet, which is why we built the bandwidth calculator. Our bandwidth calculator is a simple tool that allows you to determine which internet speed is best for your business.

Consider the number of employees that you have and select the number of devices that will be engaged in each web-based activity to calculate your ideal speed. By doing this accurately our bandwidth calculator can help you estimate ideal speeds and type of service for your business.

Number of Users or Devices Connected

The bandwidth your business is allotted is shared among all devices on your network. So if you have one employee on a video conference and another downloading a large file, you’ll need enough bandwidth to support both employees and their activities.

It’s important to consider how many employees you have and how many devices they might be using to connect to the internet. This is because if you get too little bandwidth your service will suffer and so will the productivity of your employees. Our bandwidth calculator will help you to understand your company’s peak internet needs.

Planning Ahead

As your business changes, your bandwidth needs will as well. Nielsen’s Law states that internet usage doubles every 12 months. Add the potential of company growth and you can recognize the importance of finding a flexible service provider or a plan that affords you the opportunity to adjust your speed as needed.

To do this you should slightly overestimate your needs to give your team the room to grow rather than hinder their efforts. This ensures that your team can experience a seamless internet connection as they go about their work day.

Determine Your Internet Needs

Don’t just guess. Yes, there will be some assumptions but give yourself the best chance to gain an accurate number. Count up the number of employees in your office. Understand what platforms they use on a daily basis and what their common tasks are.

Bandwidth can be delivered in a number of ways. Fiber delivers incredibly high speeds of up 1Gbps (1000Mbps) and above. Fixed wireless can deliver speeds from 5Mbps all the way up to 1Gbps making it a solid choice in areas where the service is available.

Cable, satellite and DSL tend to be considerably slower and are known as “best-effort” services. Providers over-subscribe their services in anticipation that not all users will be utilizing their circuit at the same time. This means in times of peak use, the bandwidth available to you will be significantly reduced.

The method of delivery also contributes to slower speeds. Satellite beams from your provider’s location to a satellite signal and then back to your location. DSL utilizes phone lines meaning the speed of transfer is restricted. Cable can be slightly faster but again this depends on the amount of use in
your area.
