10Gbps Aggregation Ports
PipeEthernet™ is the first in Australia to offer MEF certified 10Gbps Aggregation Ports, giving businesses more bandwidth for solutions like Disaster Recovery / Business Continuity, Software as a Service (SaaS) and convergence.

Committed Bandwidth
PipeEthernet™ gives you full speed on all circuits, all the time to ensure your applications deliver on your end users expectations. The bandwidth ordered is set as the Committed Information Rate (CIR).

Solutions

PipeEthernet™ services connect end users to their service provider in a point-to-multipoint architecture that facilitates aggregation at the service provider's end.

The service is an Ethernet Virtual Private Line (EVPL) which consists of a single Provider Ethernet Virtual Circuit (EVC), traditionally referred to as a VLAN, between the service provider's aggregation port and the end user port at the customer premises (known in MEF terms as User Network Interfaces or UNI).

The bandwidth ordered is set as the Committed Information Rate (CIR) which provides your business with the ability to deliver QoS dependent services like voice and video to your end users.

PipeEthernet™ preserves Customer Edge VLAN (CE-VLAN) and Customer Edge Class of Service (CE-VLAN CoS) IDs. This service will not support All to One Bundling but will allow multiplexing at the aggregation end, which is essential to manage multiple customers per port.

Services are available in a range of speeds from 10Mbps up to 1Gbps, to meet the ever-growing demand for bandwidth, supported by aggregation ports up to 10Gbps.
