Indian telecom giant Tata Communications has launched a pair of global Ethernet services for multinational enterprises to create wide area networks (WANs) across India and onward to major business centers in North America as well as Asia, Europe and Africa.
The two services, Dedicated Point-to-Multipoint Ethernet and Dedicated Multipoint Ethernet, can be used by enterprises to create a "virtual business campus, with users around the world communicating as if they were in adjacent offices. Both of the offerings have passed Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) certification tests - the 'Good Housekeeping' seals of the Carrier Ethernet industry. Indeed Tata boasts of being "the first global and Indian provider to earn MEF certification for its Ethernet services."
Dedicated Point-to-Multipoint Ethernet uses a hub and spoke network model to transmit data between a central location, such as a corporate headquarters or data processing center, and satellite locations. The Dedicated Multipoint service allows enterprises to deploy any-to-any network topology to create a global Ethernet WAN. Both new services have MAC address forwarding, completely private networks for each customer, and customer-premise to customer-premise service level agreements (SLAs).
"These two new services further deepen TATA's WAN Ethernet Service set, provide additional value to their customers and provide high quality services with features not found elsewhere in the market.
Tata's Ethernet network reaches eight cities in the U.S. from coast to coast, as well as two in Canada and a dozen in other countries. In its home country of India it has Ethernet points of presence (POPs) in 120 locations.
