OVERLAND PARK, Kan. -- (Business Wire)
Sprint (NYSE: S)announced that it is continuing its strategy to
expand in major carrier hotels to broaden its network and provide access
at the lowest cost. The latest effort in this expansion added a new
Point of Presence (PoP) at 910Telecom in Denver, Colorado. Sprint is now
able to provide access to its wireline network and connectivity
solutions to customers that are co-located in the data center.
Deploying in major carrier hotels is part of Sprint’s aggressive
strategy to expand its IP network footprint. Accelerating adoption of
cloud services, and an ever-growing mobile workforce are driving
enterprises to new WAN solutions that meet their increasing need for
flexibility, performance and security. Sprint’s presence in major
carrier hotels makes it easier for customers to access our comprehensive
portfolio of connectivity, cloud networking solutions and Value Added
Services, including SD-WAN.
Sprint can now provide access to Global MPLS and Dedicate IP customers
via a direct presence at 910Telecom. The new PoP provides 910Telecom’s
carrier and enterprise customers access to port speed up to 100 Gig per
second.
910Telecom is a carrier-neutral network-centric colocation
provider, delivering reliable interconnection
and secure high-performance edge data center solutions and supporting
leading enterprises, network operators, cloud providers. 910Telecom
enables service providers to connect, protect and optimize
performance-sensitive data, applications and computing workloads.
“910Telecom is the most well connected data center in the Denver area
and was one of our high-priority sites when we started our strategy to
expand the number of carrier hotels where we have a PoP,” said Mike
Fitz, President and General Manager of the Sprint Global Wireline
Business Unit. “As we continue to aggressively expand our network,
deploying in a major carrier hotel 910Telecom allows us to provide
access to our global all-IP network to a significant number of
customers.”
To support the growing shift from legacy data networks to an all-IP
environment, Sprint also added 52 U.S. IP/MPLS nodes in 2016, and in
2017, will add more than 70 nodes, expanding to more than 220 U.S.
IP/MPLS nodes. Additionally, Sprint has built hundreds of
Network-to-Network Interconnections (NNI) with more than 50 ILEC and
cable providers, creating an Ethernet access footprint that blankets the
United States.
“Sprint has a long history of providing a high-performance, secure
network and great support for their customers,” said Eryn Taylor at
910Telecom. “We are excited to add Sprint’s global network and wide
breadth of services to our facility."
