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.
