Having achieved service in 700 Central Offices (COs) nationwide, Fusion Connect is now the largest provider of on-net Ethernet-over-Copper (EoC) services in the United States. Other companies might take the opportunity to rest on their laurels, but not Fusion Connect.
Instead, we’ve followed up our EoC expansion with the introduction of Ethernet ESA. Ethernet ESA offers an off-net nationwide footprint and bandwidth ranging from 2.0 Mbps to 1.0 Gbps. Whether you’re replacing your existing T1 or need a high-bandwidth solution to meet your growing business needs, Fusion Connect Ethernet ESA has it all.
The Fusion Connect Ethernet Portfolio consists of Core Service Area (CSA) / On-Net and Extended Service Area (ESA) / Off-Net services listed below.
Bandwidth | Service Area | Footprint (COs) | |
---|---|---|---|
Ethernet over Copper (EoC) | 2 - 45 Mbps | CSA / On-Net | 700** |
Ethernet over DS1 (EoDS1) | 2 - 12 Mbps | CSA / On-Net | 700** |
Ethernet over DS3 (EoDS3)* | 44 Mbps | CSA / On-Net | 700** |
Asymmetric Ethernet (AsyE) | 8/1 - 50/10 Mbps | CSA / On-Net | 700** |
Ethernet ESA | 2 Mbps - 1 Gbps | ESA / Off-Net | Nationwide |
