The highest Metro Ethernet for the Hong Kong public: here is how and why Hutchison Global Communications and Cisco Collaborate.

We talk about the WiseNET service for the Hong Kong public, using the Metro Ethernet Forum Carrier Ethernet 2.0 (MEF CE 2.0) platform.

As you can imagine, the goal here is to deliver a high-speed, reliable and highly intelligent network for high-end enterprise users, as well as data centre and cloud service providers, to address their current and future demands.

In this dynamic, Connectikpeople.co observes that, the combination of HGC's advanced optical-fibre network and the Cisco® MEF CE 2.0 certified ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers (ASR 9000) makes WiseNET the first local public offering to adopt the highest Metro Ethernet industry standard to provide
network service.

Connectikpeople.co recalls that, the ASR 9000 is designed to simplify and enhance the operational and deployment aspects of service-delivery networks. Regarding the MEF CE 2.0 certification, it is designed to expand the Ethernet services, and establish standards in three areas namely Multiple Classes of Services (Multi-CoS), service management and interconnections, to futher ensure the quality of network services.

This innovative WiseNET service can provide an ultra-fast network with just less than 1ms latency and service availability of 99.98%.

Connectikpeople.co has also observed that, using this network, users can establish point-to-point (E-Line), any-to-any (E-LAN) and point-to-multipoint (E-Tree) network architecture simultaneously.
