Overview Ethernet has transcended its Local Area Network (LAN) origins. This ubiquitous and disruptive technology is now capable of meeting the long-range transport (up to 128 kilometers without regeneration), bandwidth (10+ Gbps), high-availability (99.999%), low-latency (55 milliseconds nation-wide) and security requirements of Metro Area Networks (MANs), Wide Area Networks (WANs) and even National Area Networks (NANs).

During this live TechRepublic Webcast, attendees will discover why the combination of speed, scalability, simplicity and economics is rapidly driving Ethernet into MANs, WANs and beyond, and what you must know about securing this new architecture. This interactive Webcast is sponsored by SafeNet and hosted by James Hilliard of TechRepublic.

Our featured guests will be Ron Young, founding chairman of the Metro Ethernet Forum and cofounder of Metro Ethernet pioneer Yipes Communications, and SafeNet's VP of enterprise security Andy Solterbeck, an expert in data-in-motion network security with an extensive background in telecommunications and encryption. They'll discuss the unique security requirements of Ethernet MANs and WANs and will field any questions you may have about this impressive networking technology.

Note: This Webcast will be recorded and made available on an on-demand basis following the live event. So pre-register today -- even if you're not sure you can attend on April 27th -- and we'll notify you by e-mail when the on-demand version is available.
