Ethernet VPN

What is Ethernet VPN?

VPN stands for virtual private network: a virtual data network between locations, which is separate from the public internet. For example, a VPN connection can be used to link multiple sites without compromising security. Thanks to VPN technology, the linked sites are seen as an integral part of the company network (the local area network or LAN).

How does Ethernet VPN work?

Our Ethernet VPN service connects your headquarters, branch offices and datacenters securely and flexibly via a closed network customized for your organization. The network makes it possible to transport various services, including internet, telephony and video. Your datacenters can also be connected to the network, enabling you to provide centrally hosted applications and platforms.

Why use Ethernet VPN?

Optimal access to business applications and data is critical for your organization. Ethernet VPN is used for handling larger volumes of data, voice and internet traffic, and facilitating transfers between locations that interact in real time and require higher bandwidth. Eurofiber’s Ethernet VPN service makes it possible for you to collaborate efficiently without security risks.
