Private Ethernet Lines integrate LAN networks of your offices and branches across different locations using a high-speed fiber network that operates independently of the Internet. This allows servers, computers and other devices from different locations to establish long-distance direct connections with guaranteed bandwidth. You can connect two locations using a single line or multiple locations to create a network.

Multiple technologies are supported, such as Ethernet Private Line, Ethernet Virtual Private Line, Ethernet Private LAN, Ethernet Virtual Private LAN, Ethernet over MPLS and Ethernet over SDH/SONET.

Advantages

• Guaranteed bandwidth and very low latency between long-distance locations, which is very important for real time applications.
• Private communication because packets travel outside the Internet.
• Easy to maintain and migrate since no public IP addresses are involved.
• Lines terminate at Ethernet interfaces, enabling easy integration with your switching and routing devices.
• Ethernet as underlying protocol, allowing you to run your own network technologies on top of it, like VPN and custom QoS policies.
