Du partners with Verizon to offer enterprise solutions

Du has signed a services agreement with US communications company Verizon, allowing the UAE telco to offer a comprehensive suite of managed services. The services to be offered to Dubai-based global enterprise customers include Private Internet Protocol (PIP), Ethernet Private Line Service (EPL), and Ethernet Virtual Private Line service (EVPL).

The agreement will give Du access to Verizon’s global PIP network enabling the UAE telco to offer large business customers in the region a complete suite of enterprise IP, Ethernet and data services.

The deal is set to provide many industry leading capabilities and reliability including high-speed user connectivity in major markets, 60+ Ethernet Access Partners, eight-way mesh diversity on trans-Atlantic and trans-Pacific routes and more direct routes with lower latency including direct connectivity from Dubai to the US and Europe. Du first launched its Global MPLS and Ethernet services one year ago in partnership with other service providers.
