Reliance Globalcom, has launched LAN PHY, a dedicated Ethernet point-to-point service, as a standard service offering on its network across the globe.
The company?s 10G LAN PHY services are now available across 19 global cities on Reliance Globalcom?s FA-1, FNAL, Falcon, FEA and Hawk cable systems. The service will enable its wholesale customers to interconnect their internet routers with less expensive 10G Ethernet / LAN PHY interfaces, instead of utilising the legacy STM64/OC192 interfaces, thereby reducing the costs on internet services.
Punit Garg, president and chief executive officer, Reliance Globalcom, said, ?We have successfully upgraded our global network and built capability to support 10G LAN PHY services across our network, which offer a significantly lower cost alternative to our customers compared to the legacy synchronous digital hierarchy/ synchronous optical networking based 10G interfaces. ?
He further added, ?It enables our customers to utilise the new generation multi-Terabit Ethernet routers which are 85 to 90 per cent cheaper compared to traditional time-division multiplexing based routers with comparable capacities, and leverage upon the cost-effective and familiar Ethernet technology to build and grow large IP backbones and Internet content or storage networks.?
