Flexible bandwidth

Ethernet Connect is provided with a selection of access bearers each capable of supporting a range of bandwidths. No-fuss 'soft' bandwidth upgrades allow businesses to upgrade connectivity as and when required, without the lead times associated with traditional Private Circuits.

Multi-point (Virtual Private LAN service)

As well as simple point-to-point services, Ethernet Connect can also be provided to three or more sites in a multi-point configuration. Ethernet frames (layer 2) are switched between sites by the MPLS network.

Bursting facility

The Bursting facility allows your bandwidth to exceed your contracted limit on occasion. This is essential for occasional unplanned heavy use.

Quality of service

The Quality of Service feature allows traffic to be classified so that certain classes of traffic can be prioritised over others. This is particularly useful for time-sensitive traffic such as video and voice.

High quality dedicated bandwidth

Ethernet Connect is supported by a state of the art Multi Service Platform (MSP) with Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) transport.
All bandwidth is dedicated with no contention, giving each customer a high quality, consistent service backed by a world class Service Level Agreement (SLA).
Our core network is fully resilient using geographically separated cable systems and carrier-class technology to automatically route traffic around faults where necessary.
