PacNet Metro Ethernet

Point to Point, One of the Most Reliable Connection Protocols in the Industry
Call it Metro Ethernet, Ethernet Over Fiber, Gigabit Ethernet or Metropolitan Optical Ethernet – no matter how you label it – it’s incredibly fast!

PacNet’s Metro Ethernet offers dynamic speeds with low latency and incredible scalability. It’s an ideal Internet connection for medium to large businesses, combining the dedicated bandwidth of Private Line with the simplicity and affordability of an Ethernet interface.

Considerably less expensive than a SONET/SDH or PDH interface of the same bandwidth, PacNet’s Metro Ethernet supports high bandwidth with fine granularity not available on traditional SDH connections. With PacNet’s Metro Ethernet, your company can utilize one single provider for your intercity and metro transport needs.

You’ll benefit from linking locations via a private, secure and diverse bandwidth that can efficiently support transmission of your advanced applications at up to Gigabit speeds. You can simplify your network by treating all connected LANs, MANs and WANs as a single network. You’ll reduce capital costs even further by replacing your legacy WAN interfaces and circuits with our highly-efficient Metro Ethernet ports and services.

PacNet understands the importance of your mission-critical applications. We’ll partner with you to connect to our redundant metro and intercity SONET-based network for reliable transport of very large application data sets, such as large CAD files, digital images or video streams. We’ll simultaneously support your multiple high-bandwidth applications across the network, such as teleconferencing, network storage backup and retrieval, and media-rich content.
