Epsilon is deploying next-gen packet optical switched Ethernet technology to enable hyper-scale connectivity to support the growth of Big Data, IoT and Cloud on a global scale
Chicago, 7th May 2018 – Epsilon, a privately owned global communications Service Provider, has begun a phased deployment of 100 Gigabyte per second (100G) packet optical switched Ethernet technology across its global backbone network. The deployment will enable Epsilon to serve its partners with 100G connectivity on-demand via its Infiny platform. Partners will benefit from hyper-scale connectivity designed to support Big Data, Internet of Things (IoT) and Cloud around the world.
Phase 1 of the deployment will extend 100G services throughout US, Europe and across the Atlantic. Epsilon will upgrade its core US network connecting New York, Ashburn, Miami, Dallas, Los Angeles, San Jose, Seattle, and Chicago.
