Low-latency, High Capacity, Maximum Scalability

Perfect for ISPs in need of a high-capacity backbone network – VPLS offers scalability and flexibility where point-to-point options simply won’t do.

Our VPLS provides any-to-any connectivity, extending your network across multiple locations, anywhere in the world. VPLS combines the simplicity of Ethernet with the resiliency of our underlying MPLS network to provide complete control over your routing environment.

Simple Service, Maximum Control

VPLS is easy to manage, extending the simplicity of the Ethernet LAN across the WAN. GTT’s VPLS network enables you to maintain full routing control of traffic, with no sharing of your routing table or IP addressing. The service allows for transmission of IP traffic, as well as non-IP traffic, with no encapsulation or conversion required.
Insight Control

High-Quality Service Delivery

Our VPLS service employs P-bit prioritization for Class of Service (CoS) at no additional cost, allowing you to segment traffic into four classes. This ensures that latency-sensitive applications are given the highest priority, providing an optimal end-user experience.

Flexible Bandwidth Options

GTT provides flexible bandwidth options, including flat-rate billing as well as burstable ports to meet data spikes. Unlike many VPLS providers, we also offer an aggregate committed data rate (ACDR) plan that allows for sharing of bandwidth across ports, so you can avoid overpaying for idle capacity.
