What type of Internet connection is needed to support hosted Exchange?
Your connection to the Internet is critical for any hosted Exchange service. The reason for this is that your collaboration client (Microsoft Outlook) connects and shares your information with the Exchange server, as well as retrieve updates in regards to all other users who also use the server. In essence, the more users your firm has using outlook, the more Internet bandwidth that is required to use it efficiently. One of the keys is the available upload bandwidth available. For example, many cable and telephone company DSL lines only offer 128K upload speeds.
