Metro Ethernet
A Metro Ethernet service is a private data connection securely connecting two or more locations in a metropolitan area with Ethernet data speeds. A metro Ethernet circuit is a closed network data transport service which does not traverse the public Internet and is inherently secure with no data encryption needed. Metro Ethernet services are available in a range of a bandwidth speeds from 10Mbps to 10Gbps. A metro Ethernet private line connection provides unparalleled quality of service (QoS) as it is not a shared service and follows the same secure direct network path every time. Metro Ethernet circuits are used by businesses to provide reliable, secure Ethernet point to point data service for applications including credit card processing, file sharing, data backup, Ethernet VOIP, and video conferencing. A metro Ethernet circuit can also be configured to carry voice, video, Internet, and data services together over the same Ethernet connection. Point to Point Metro Ethernet services are also known as Metro Ethernet Private Line or Metro Optical Ethernet
