Connectivity with 
Ethernet Business 
Services
Ethernet business services provide dedicated, high-
capacity connectivity leveraging fiber optics to empower 
modern business connectivity needs from leading telecom 
carriers. By delivering robust, scalable Ethernet-based 
WAN solutions to enterprises, ethernet business services 
enable always-on networking for aligning distributed 
operations.
Ethernet business services underpin hybrid work 
environments through high-performance VPN access to 
business applications, virtual desktops, and contact centers 
in the cloud. Ethernet business service capacities from 
10Mbps to 100Gbps scale affordably to handle voice, data, 
video and future bandwidth demands with exceptional 
reliability.
The foundation behind ethernet business services is 
Ethernet Wide Area Network (WAN) technology 
transmitting data as packet switched frames rather than 
circuits. Ethernet WAN leverages fiber for speed, security, 
resiliency and cost-effectiveness when connecting facilities 
across metro regions or nationally.
Managed ethernet business solutions add software-
defined wide area networking capabilities maximizing 
application performance over Ethernet protocols. Features 
like application-aware routing, QoS traffic shaping and 
zero-trust security overcome multipoint Ethernet 
limitations to assure responsive experiences.
Ethernet business class advances Ethernet with 
comprehensive service-level agreements ensuring around-
the-clock performance, SLAs, proactive monitoring and 
dedicated account management across the MAN or WAN. 
These carrier-grade network services enable always-on 
critical operations.
Common ethernet business service options include point-
to-point Ethernet, switched Ethernet and metro Ethernet 
deployments capable of interconnecting multiple 
locations. Ethernet access options range from copper, fiber 
and fixed wireless tail circuits aggregated onto high-
capacity fiber transport networks.
Key attributes offered by EBS providers include flexible 
bandwidth tiers, usage-based billing options, managed 
router solutions, route diversity protection for high 
availability and unified infrastructure for voice and data 
convergence. Role-based analytics provide visibility into 
network utilization.
