Study the business strategy and sustainability of metro ethernet implementation / Mohamad Supni Shaari

Metro Ethernet business solutions are designed to cater to every customer’s individual needs and supported by highly skilled professionals. The world today relations information in the form of digital voice and data and the transport network is used to carry this information from one abode to another. Transport technologies use a media to carry this information. Ethernet economics are proven in the LAN. This technology now delivers the same advantage to the WAN. The cost per Mbps of bandwidth is lower for Ethernet services in comparison to other alternatives. This project is actually a case study of the existing network of NRE*Net. This case study is basically studying and analyzing the network of the agencies in NRE that use Metro Ethernet Services, with limited scope and particular objective. This project objective is to study the Metro Ethernet capabilities in providing a flexible, scalable, and cost-effective option to private lines, frame relay, and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) connectivity solutions for WAN. This paper will presents an overview of deploying Metro Ethernet in reducing the costs and at the same time increase the level of satisfaction of its end-user employees and customers with secure remote connectivity solutions. Ethernet over fiber provide distinct operational, strategic and economic advantages over legacy technologies for the delivery of metro data services. By combining the simplicity and scalability of Ethernet networking technology with the speed of optical transport, Ethernet networks overcome the primary limitations of legacy data networks.
