These can be locations within a single enterprise, between an enterprise and its suppliers and customers, between enterprises and data centers, POPs, COs or carrier hotels and other service provider networks. The customer connects to the Met-Net network using a standard Ethernet interface on their existing router, hub or switch. Bandwidth is customer controlled and instantly scalable in 1 Mbps increments.
