Metro Optical Ethernet
Metro Ethernet service is a type of Carrier Ethernet technology used in Metro Area Networks (MANs) by large multi-location corporations, academic institutions and government agencies. Metro Ethernet services can be used to connect to a business to a Local Area Network (LAN), individual end users to a Wide Area Network (WAN) or to the Internet. Metro Ethernet can be used to connect branches, campuses or offices to an Intranet. Metro Ethernet services can be configured as a star network or mesh network. With Metro Ethernet, Customer Equipment (CE) attaches to the Metro Ethernet Network using standard 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps Ethernet connections. The benefits of Metro Ethernet services include ease of use, cost-savings and flexibility. Metro Ethernet service is preferred due the fact that it is standardized and widely used in nearly all networking equipment and devices.
