Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS)

Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) allows the creation of standards-based, secure VPNs across carrier IP networks. It is typically cheaper and more flexible than a traditional leased line approach.

MPLS services are tiered to provide different QoS settings for different traffic classes.  

Hermes provides MPLS services including a managed Customer Edge (CE) router at each site. Hermes designs, integrates an monitors QoS and CoS settings within the network to optimise service delivery and ensure that bandwidth is used correctly.

Hermes integrates multiple MPLS providers via Hermes core infrastructure, and ensures that QoS settings dovetail. The result is that we can provide global MPLS services at a fraction of the cost of competitors.

Hermes can also provide simple extensions to existing MPLS services over satellite, handing off at suitable network nodes in London, Houston or Moscow.
