DataCentre Connect
Expand your network quickly and cost effectively
A Metro Ethernet service available in all hSo’s on-net sites, by virtue of our running a next-generation MPLS network. All sites feature redundant connectivity over leased dark fibre.
What is DataCentre Connect?
DataCentre Connect, our Layer 2 Ethernet service, gives you a transparent Ethernet circuit between a pair of locations, emulating a direct Ethernet cable between your devices on either end. The connections will pass all Layer 2 protocols such as Cisco Discovery (CDP) and Spanning Tree (STP) as well as your VLAN tags (including your own Q-in-Q or double tagged frames).
Uses:
• Expand your network, using DataCentre Connect, to new sites quickly and cost effectively
• Temporary connectivity between sites
• Reduce leased line costs
• Save on bandwidth costs; compared to using Internet traffic
• Connect to customers in remote locations
• Connect to private peering partners in remote locations
