AboveNet Announces Metro Ethernet Services
March 23, 2004
By OpticallyNetworked Staff

AboveNet, Inc., a provider of integrated access services over optical infrastructure, today introduced a new AboveNet Metro Ethernet product as part of its strategy to expand its portfolio of services for bandwidth-intensive enterprise applications. AboveNet claims to differentiate its Ethernet service combining private dedicated fiber connections with Ethernet technology to offer cost-effective, plug-and-play, high-speed Ethernet connectivity.

AboveNet's Metro Ethernet service is designed to provide secure managed optical Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, transparently connecting customer LANs together to seamlessly run business applications over Ethernet within the metro area. AboveNet also claims it service enables customers to quickly deploy Ethernet LANs between on-net buildings, as well as quickly scale their network as business needs grow.

"AboveNet's advantage has long been its ability to bundle its extensive metropolitan fiber network with critical technology," said William G. LaPerch, President, AboveNet. "Our new Ethernet product will enable customers to have an easy-to-use, high speed connection that is also a dedicated network connection. This gives them the ultimate in security, control and flexibility."

Using AboveNet's Ethernet service, the company says its customers can avoid the traditional local loop and the traffic bottlenecks and cost associated with the public switched network. AboveNet operates an office-to-office, 100-percent optical network. The company claims to have one of the most extensive metropolitan optical network in the world, data centers throughout the US and Europe, managed services and a high- performance IP network, AboveNet is able to offer the most flexible and complete information exchange solutions in the industry.
