SingTel says its use of Cisco’s Multiprotocol Label Switching-Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) carrier packet transport technologies will be used on its ConnectPlus E-Line service, which provides large SingTel customers with” scalable high-speed connections worldwide.
“SingTel's customers can now enjoy data bandwidths of up to 10 Gigabits per second to support bandwidth-intensive applications with high service reliability across their global offices,” said Goh Boon Huat, SingTel's Vice President of Business Products.
“In the coming year, SingTel will use this platform to deliver dedicated point-to-multipoint and electronic Bandwidth-On-Demand for ConnectPlus E-Line services. MPLS-TP also brings predictable resiliency and simplicity to service provisioning. This allows SingTel to respond faster to customers' business needs and fulfil stringent service level agreements.”
Cisco’s carrier packet transport technology is designed to unify the packet and transport domains. “With MPLS-TP, SingTel is able to serve its customers with a greater degree of freedom in terms of network topology demands regardless of its customers' locations, traffic conditions and bandwidth requirements,” said Goh.
