IP Networks, (IPN) a highly scalable Ethernet-Over-Fiber
solutions provider, announces its selection of Tinet, a Neutral Tandem company
and a global carrier focused on the IP and Ethernet wholesale markets, to
strategically market its network assets to the company’s worldwide carrier
partners.
IP Networks will utilize Tinet’s EtherCloud service in
order to offer its customer base cost effective Ethernet services outside its
footprint of 50-plus carrier partners without the need to set up External
Network to Network Interfaces (E-NNIs) with each provider.
“Tinet, a leading global carrier and industry
pioneer, is an ideal choice for IP Networks and for our customers’ network
assets, particularly now that we gain access to Tinet’s groundbreaking
EtherCloud service,” said Mark Brown, director of sales for IP Networks.
“IP Networks operates the largest legacy-free,
Ethernet access network in the San Francisco and Silicon Valley regions
connecting enterprise buildings and data centers. With EtherCloud, IP Networks
can now quickly and efficiently source, price, and order services through the
dedicated EtherCloud portal, and actively monitor connectivity of the circuit,
among other advantages,” Brown added.
EtherCloud is a Layer 2 platform connecting diverse
partner networks into a seamless Ethernet cloud that delivers end-to-end
connectivity around the world. EtherCloud relies on Tinet’s global MPLS
backbone as a distributed switched network. It is currently available at 120
Points of Presence (PoPs) in four continents, to interconnect partners’
networks through standardized E-NNIs.
