Local area network
(VPLS) services :~
STC provides (VPLS) services as network's default, so they provide this service to concept of
Virtual Private Network to enable the clients business to link set of points to others customers form
other places through the use of Layer 2 over STC’s Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)
network. VPLS Bandwidth Offering From 2 Mbps up to 2.5 Gbps.

VPLS enhances businesses through offering broadcast and multicast applications.
Personal area network
STC company used A personal area network (PAN) is a computer network used for
communication among computer and different information technological devices close to one
person. Like
 printers.
 fax machines
 telephones
 scanners.
Also PAN may include wired and wireless devices.
A wired PAN .~
is usually constructed with USB and Firewire connections
A wireless PAN.~
1. such as Bluetooth .
2.infrared communication.
Home area network
STC used A home area network (HAN) is a residential LAN which is used for communication
between digital devices typically deployed in the Company, usually a small number of personal
computers and accessories, such as printers and mobile computing devices. An important function is
the sharing of Internet access, often a broadband service through a cable TV or Digital Subscriber
Line (DSL) provider.

independently from the existing terrestrial infrastructure.
Easy and Fast Setup
Sky IP is an easy and fast technology to setup, which can be fully deployed within 1-2 days
Wide area network
A wide area network (WAN) is a computer network that covers a large geographic area such
as a city and country even intercontinental distances, using a communications channel that
combines many types of media such as telephone lines, and cables. A WAN often uses
transmission facilities provided by common carriers, such as telephone companies. WAN
technologies generally function at the lower three layers of the OSI reference model: the
physical layer, the data link layer, and the network layer.
