Uecomm is at the forefront of delivering simple and efficient layer 2 managed Ethernet networks for business. In 2001, we became the first carrier in Australia to offer Ethernet WANs to Australian business, and we remain the leading provider of this technology. Ethernet is rapidly becoming the primary communications technology for organisations of all sizes. Most businesses already have Ethernet LANs. By extending Ethernet beyond the office or campus to the metropolitan-area network (MAN), businesses can gain greater reliability, performance, and flexibility than they could with other broadband access methods, usually at lower cost.Uecomm's Ethernet VPN service combines the reliability and scalability of optical fibre with the simplicity, utility and price/performance benefits of Ethernet.
