  • Multi-Site Connectivity over Ethernet Technology

    Ideally suited for multi-site to multi-site connectivity, Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) from XO is a Layer 2-based service running on Ethernet technology. Built upon MPLS core architecture, XO Carrier VPLS facilitates a virtual LAN environment where all interconnected LANs appear to the customer as a single, bridged LAN. With VPLS, you’re able to support your customers’ mission-critical applications and multi-site connectivity by leveraging the power and resiliency of MPLS technology and the ease-of-use inherent to Ethernet.
