Integra Telecom is adding Ethernet-Over-Copper (EoC) and Ethernet-Over-TDM (EoTDM) access methods to its Carrier Ethernet network. The integration of EoC and EoTDM access methods, coupled with Carrier Ethernet standards, provides Integra the ability to deliver transparent Ethernet access to virtually all business in their service area, not only those which can be reached with optical fiber.

Integra’s fiber network consists of 3,000 route miles of metro fiber and 5,000 miles of long-haul fiber that span across 11 western states. The network currently serves over 1600 commercial buildings and, with these additional access methods, Integra can now provide Ethernet access to virtually all business in the markets we serve, according to Bryan Adams, senior product manager, Data Services for Integra.”
