Abstract: We present the characterization of metric spaces that are micro-, macro- or bi-uniformly equivalent to the extended Cantor set $su{m}_{i=-n}^{i}nftyfrac2x_i{3}^i:ninIN,;(x_i{)}_{iinIZ}in{0,1}^{I}ZsubsetIR$, which is bi-uniformly equivalent to the Cantor bi-cube $2^{<IZ}=(x_i{)}_{iinIZ}in{0,1}^{I}Z:existsn;foralligen;x_i=0$ endowed with the metric $d((x_i),(y_i))=ma{x}_{iinIZ}{2}^i|x_i-y_i|$. Those characterizations imply that any two (uncountable) proper isometrically homogeneous ultrametric spaces are coarsely (and bi-uniformly) equivalent. This implies that any two countable locally finite groups endowed with proper left-invariant metrics are coarsely equivalent. For the proof of these results we develop a technique of towers which can have an independent interest.
