Written by: - Sep 3, 2010


IP Ethernet is a WAN service deployed over a metropolitan area. The service provider extends Ethernet over fiber optics to a customers building, and the customer connects the cable to their LAN switch or router. The service provider can offer the customer either fastethernet or gigabit ethernet speed. The customer can order whatever bandwidth they want to, from 10 Mbps ethernet to 1 gige network speeds. This is a cost saving to the customer as well as increased simplicity without transferring protocols back and forth.

Metro ethernet is flexible because if your business needs more bandwidth than a T1, but not as much as a DS3, metro area ethernet allows you to order in 1 mbps increments. Metro area ethernet is also perfect for providing the bandwidth needed if your business is using voip, ip cameras, large file sharing, or managed services.
