Carrier Ethernet

Introduction

Increase Revenue, Reduce Costs

To increase profitability, you need to offer a range of innovative services across a truly converged network. Cisco Carrier Ethernet for Wireline Carriers is the foundation for cost-effective delivery of consumer and business services over a single network. Using Ethernet and IP Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) technologies, it provides a converged infrastructure that is ideal for deploying IP next-generation networks (NGNs).

Carrier Ethernet Benefits
