size=2>"OneNet" is a Distance Learning network which uses Internet Protocol for
transport of video and many other services for schools and agencies. OneNet
is well connected to "the Internet" but as a private network, we are able
to control QoS parameters on our network.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

out that the "internet" as we know it was not designed to handle video
well.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=195052303-02122004><FONT face=Arial size=2>In contrast, OneNet
was a "Video" network providing distance learning two decades before it began
using IP for transport. The State Regents commitment to quality Distance
Learning services began in 1970 and continues with our H.323 services
today. Two schools on OneNet may experience good video, but when they try
to contact a school on "the Internet" there may be quality problems. This
article may help you understand why that is.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
