Services / Connectivity & network / Layer 2

Layer 2 / Ethernet

Layer 2 and Ethernet connections between sites.

We connect offices, customer racks and datacenters using dedicated Ethernet handovers. The route, bandwidth and handover are designed subject to technical feasibility.

Common uses

Connect two sites

Point-to-point Ethernet between offices or technical locations.

Site to datacenter

Layer 2 connectivity from an office to customer infrastructure or a rack in a datacenter.

VLAN handovers

Agreed VLANs and handover points for existing customer and provider networks.

Multi-site

Connections for several sites where the topology and available access circuits permit them.

Technical design

Before quotation, we establish the A and B ends, handover medium, VLANs, required capacity, redundancy and existing hardware. A parallel or temporary connection can be considered during migration where available.

Technical interface

Port type, tagging, MTU requirements and the connection point are agreed before delivery.

Migration

Cutover, testing, dependencies and rollback are planned with the teams involved.
