Pangaea extends metro Ethernet service to Arbinet

NEW YORK USA: Arbinet Corp., a leading wholesale voice and data telecom service provider and Pangaea Networks, a New York metro area provider of Ethernet local loop solutions, announced the expansion of Pangaea’s network into Arbinet’s IP Exchange Point of Presence (PoP) at 75 Broad Street in the Financial District of Manhattan.

Arbinet’s IP Solutions provide flexible Internet transit options through its exchange platform. With one connection or local loop, buyers gain access to multiple IP backbones requiring no minimum commitments and the option to choose suppliers based on measured quality metrics.

By combining Pangaea’s Metro Ethernet solutions with Arbinet’s IP services, Pangaea now offers the market high quality, flexible IP transit solutions bundled with its metro network offering. By interconnecting its network to Arbinet’s IP Exchange, Pangaea’s customers gain access to a variety of IP solutions including layer 2 access to major Internet backbones and Arbinet’s patented OptimizedIPsm service which offers the highest quality routing solution.

“Connecting our fiber backbone and Metro Ethernet platform to Arbinet’s IP Exchange, enables Pangaea to offer its customers access to a variety of quality Internet solutions,” states Kevin Black, Vice President of Business Development at Pangaea Networks.

“From small financial service firms requiring low latency and redundant IP bandwidth to large institutions running BGP, Pangaea’s PANMetro Virtual GigE Ring offers a single point of connection with custom designed VLAN solutions and IP at a fraction of the cost of individual point to point connections.”

“Pangaea’s extension into Arbinet’s IP Exchange enables its small to large enterprise customers to have access to quality IP transit solutions traditionally available only to customers co-located within large data centers such as carriers and ISPs,” comments Ed d’Agostino, National Sales Director, IP Services for Arbinet.

“Not only does Arbinet provide a redundant, high quality solution, but Pangaea’s enterprise customers now need only one local loop to reach multiple IP providers. In addition, Arbinet’s voice exchange customers that use TDM circuits, can easily access Arbinet’s Voice Network through our IP Exchange or Pangaea’s Ethernet solutions.”

PANMetro Ethernet service enables nearly any end-customer the ability to leverage Ethernet technology to obtain dedicated local access. Pangaea Networks converts legacy network connections, such as TDM and SONET to Ethernet over an area, stretching from Connecticut to Southern New Jersey. The company provides Ethernet access to over 2,700 enterprise buildings and interconnectivity to nearly all of the New York metro area’s datacenter and co-location facilities.
