"We're extremely excited about the opportunities represented by the Austin market," said telecommunications industry veteran John "Joc" Jacquay, senior vice president of sales and marketing. "By offering services within Austin and connecting Austin to our networks in Dallas, Houston, and our other metro markets, we provide a tremendous suite of high-bandwidth data transport solutions to this key region."
