Metro Ethernet is an emerging technology that bridges the so-called "last mile" by using optical fiber to provide high-speed broadband connections. Using familiar Ethernet technology, businesses can inexpensively implement a variety of innovative services. These include Internet Protocol (IP) virtual private network (IP/VPN), video and audio Web-content delivery, IP telephony and data storage. For DSFH, the network allows for a comprehensive rollout of operational and analytic CRM. The bank aims to create a single repository of customer data and customer contact history, which will help the bank representatives manage customer relationships. The Hong Kong-listed bank aims to use historical and real-time knowledge to provide better services to the customers through any channel at any time. Such a system demands a high-capacity network capable of dealing with the high data flows.
