Ethernet Access
Control, configure and manage your private network with fewer costs or challenges.
What is Ethernet Access?
Segra Ethernet service delivers fast, reliable, dedicated, and secure network connectivity between 2 or more locations. It is an ideal choice to support applications such as file sharing, data backup, and video. In addition, it offers enhanced network scalability to meet evolving needs and provides the convenience of streamlined management. Segra offers three architecture choices to meet your ethernet design needs:
E-LINE
-
Private and dedicated Layer 2 point-to-point data transport service that utilizes Ethernet Virtual Connections (EVC’s) to enable information exchange between two specific locations.
E-TREE
-
VLAN-based Layer 2 private and dedicated Ethernet data transport service that connects multiple locations in a hub and spoke configuration (point-to-multi-point) providing aggregation at the hub location.
E-LAN
-
Port based Layer 2 private and dedicated Ethernet data transport service connecting multiple sites in an any-to-any (multipoint-to-multipoint) configuration offering fully meshed information transfer.
Seamless, Scalable, Flexible, Reliable.
As enterprises grow, network size and complexity follow suit. More endpoints mean more time and resources must be spent on managing and keeping them secure which can lead to unwanted downstream side effects.
Maintaining agility and productivity requires carrier-grade infrastructure.
-
Enhanced security and control
-
High scalability and performance
-
Multiple access and topology options
