The new agreement will allow Pacnet high quality access to U.S.-based customers needing to connect their locations to offices throughout the Asia-Pacific region, including China, India, and Australia.\u00a0 \u00a0Pacnet has extensive network coverage with interconnected data centers in most major business markets including Hong Kong; Singapore; Sydney, Australia; and Chongqing, China.\u00a0\u00a0 Pacnet delivers unparalleled connectivity for large businesses, including many Fortune 1000 enterprises, needing managed data, private line, data center services and content delivery over its 29,000 miles of sub-sea fiber. \u00a0tw telecom’s<\/strong> national business Ethernet network connects directly to approximately 19,100 lit buildings, including 450 third-party data centers and their tenants, throughout the United States.<\/p>\n

“The Asia-Pacific region has seen explosive growth over the past several years and more-and-more U.S. based companies are either looking to expand their current operations in the region or create new operations \u2013 particularly in China and India,” said Cardi Prinzi, President-Enterprise Markets for Pacnet.\u00a0 “Connecting tw telecom’s<\/strong> incredible U.S.-based fiber assets to Pacnet’s network of sub-sea fiber, connecting the U.S. to the rest of Asia, will help us provide a higher level of service to our customers.”<\/p>\n

“Pacnet recognizes the need for a secure and scalable network as they roll out business critical applications to their customers,” said Tom Marx, President of tw telecom’s<\/strong> Wholesale Services.\u00a0 “Many carriers typically do not have their own network to connect everywhere they need to go, so they look to tw telecom<\/strong> to provide secure, scalable and predictable network connections and solutions that help them deliver applications to their customers’ thousands of locations. \u00a0\u00a0Carriers that use E-Access can also avoid capital investments, reduce operating costs and more easily manage their network capability.”<\/p>\n
