Apr 28, 2006 : Ethernet Forum Certifies Verizon
📅 - Telecommunications provider Verizon Business (verizon.com) announced on Friday that the Ethernet services authority Metro Ethernet Forum has awarded certification to the complete suite of Verizon global Carrier Ethernet services.
The recognition makes Verizon Business among the first providers to receive certification for adopting global Ethernet interoperability standards as defined by the MEF.
"Verizon Business is both adopting best practices and helping to define the standards that enable companies to benefit from the simplicity, flexibility and cost-savings associated with Ethernet and IP networking," says Ed McGuinness, chief marketing officer for Verizon Business. "And because Verizon Business has a local-to-global focus, our customers can rest assured that their Ethernet services will have the same great look and feel whether they span cities or continents."
Verizon received certification for its suite of Ethernet services after meeting specifications for each of four key Ethernet service areas identified and tested by the MEF. These areas included E-LAN, Ethernet Virtual Private Line, Ethernet Private Line and Dedicated SONET Ring Ethernet. Additionally, Verizon was the only service provider to be recognized for offering metro, national and global Ethernet services.
