Ethernet gives you many choices. Dont accept restrictions.

Flexible Ports: Handle 1 100 or 1 1,000 Meg on a single port. Dont need to change ports with bandwidth change. Packet SLA: Get the SLA you need for a packet world. Packet loss, latency, jitter and service uptime. Bandwidth granularity: Ethernet offers almost any bandwidth. Customers have many more options.

Other choices Burstability Non-service impacting upgrades End-to-end SLA Jumbo frames

Flexibility, options and performance measurement. Ethernet provides a more cost effective, higher quality solution with greater customer control.

Delivering solutions for the customer

Customer networks are not homogenous
A variety of internal requirements
Live streaming video Multicast Voice Data backup, email

Budget pressures are counter to the quality requirements Traditional legacy services do not meet quality and budget requirements

Ethernet solves most customer network issues

But one size doesnt fit all you need choice (platform, service, topology) Expand your consideration to multipoint or point-to-multipoint solutions to save money Choose a vendor with the footprint that matches your requirement
On-net gives the vendor the most visibility Understand the partners and the end-to-end service

Emerging markets are the focus

Major financial centres, but also covering key locations for specific verticals (BFSI, IT, energy, manufacturing...)

Ethernet allows you to build the best network for the right price.

Four Keys to Global Ethernet Solutions

Reach
Ethernet needs to be available wherever customers need to go Deep relationships with local carriers is key to achieve service alignment and quality (jumbo frames, diversity, LLF)

Reliable
Locations on Ethernet tend to be connected to the data centres if the connectivity is down, so is their business Class of service is starting to become more highly valued

Visible
Customers value end-to-end service management and performance visibility Important to have a true customer traffic view, not a path view

Flexible
Providers must offer a wide selection of services to meet the individual requirements of a variety of customer applications and services Customers are ramping up their bandwidth needs quickly providers need to have a lot of capacity on tap Increasing interest in burstability and usage-based services
