- Scalable Ethernet Using VLAN Stacking
- Thanks to the recent standardisation of long-range, high-bandwidth Ethernet interfaces, Ethernet can now be used in metropolitan networks. It can be said that Ethernet now offers the same bandwidth and range as traditional WAN technologies. However, adapted interfaces alone do not turn Ethernet into a WAN technology. A carrier-class network...

- OC-192c/STM-64c and 10 Gigabit Ethernet WAN PHY
- The introduction of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE) WAN PHY into the IP/Ethernet networking community has led to confusion over the applicability between 10 GbE WAN PHY and OC-192c/STM-64 interfaces. Both of these interfaces support transmission at 9.6 Gbps, support SONET/SDH framing, and can be connected to SONET/SDH ADM or...

- Provider Backbone Bridges Bring Massive Service Scalability to Ethernet
- Ethernet services have emerged as an attractive proposition because they offer more cost effective bandwidth than traditional WAN services. This has led to a requirement for Carrier Ethernet networks that can deliver the benefits of Ethernet services, with the carrier-grade performance of traditional WAN technologies. In an effort to deliver...

- The Value of Subscribing to Managed Metro Ethernet Services From Service Providers With Cisco QoS Certification
- The paper begins by describing how Ethernet has evolved from a technology exclusive to LANs to one equally at home in WANs - the "Metropolitan area." By extending Ethernet to the WAN, one can better control the communications; take advantage of converged voice, data, and video services; and save money,...
