What is Committed Information Rate (CIR)?
Committed Information Rate (CIR) guarantees a minimum level of service (bandwidth). For instance, a shared bandwidth system that is advertised as “128 kbit upload” does not guarantee 128 kbit speeds. Although such systems have published averages, no guarantee is offered that this is always available. With CIR, a customer is assured that available bandwidth never drops below a certain point.Some providers offer CIR on systems with shared bandwidth for an additional monthly cost. It is only available on our iDirect systems.
