The OTE Ethernet Service is addressed to Telecommunication Service Providers and enables them to Connect their own Points of Presenceor with those of their third parties for the transmission of data traffic. It also allows data transfer from a Physical Collocation (PC) room, to a Telecommunication Service Provider’s Point of Presence.
The continually expanding OTE Ethernet Network ensures security, high speed, substantial cost effectiveness and flexibility regarding data transmission and traffic routing.
Traffic Routing between a Telecommunication Service Provider’s points of presence is done “Transparently”, by simulating an IEEE 802.3 PHY connection on the Telecommunication Service Provider’s “side”. Thus, every Telecommunication Service Provider is able to plan and implement its own IP architecture, adapting its own needs without any intervention by OTE in the routing of packages.
The OTE Ethernet Service is available with the security and quality characteristics of a virtual private network (VPN), whereas access to the network is offered with high availability characteristics. OTE undertakes the management and support of the network at a layer2 level, and communication security is ensured through the ΕοΜPLS technology. The OTE Ethernet service has been designed to take into account the Geographic Coverageand in particular the special Topology of each Telecommunication Service Provider’s points of presence, thus meeting all the Telecommunication Service Provider’s particular needs all over Greece, both at Local and Long Distance levels.
The Points of Presence of the “OTE Ethernet” Service are being increased constantly, currently covering 151 OTE's Local Exchanges in 30 Urban Areasthroughout Greece, which can be connected with one another.
The connection of a Telecommunication Service Provider’s Points of Presencewith the corresponding OTE Ethernet nodes is implemented via fiber optics, or copper infrastructure using SHDSL technology, covering a wide range of scalable access speeds.
Depending on the access technology used, the following access speeds are available:
For the SHDSL circuits: 1, 2 and 4 Mbps
For fiber optics circuits, 6 Mbps to 10 Gbps
Through the use of the OTE Ethernet Service, Telecommunication Service Providers can enjoy:
High Communication Capabilities, perfectly adapted to their own needs and traffic volumes
Data transmission at ultra high speeds with the utmost security
Flexibility and capability for circuit upgrade and modification
Cost cutting and preventing a waste of resources, since every single Euro is spent on useful data “routes” and traffic
Transparency in all Protocols
