JUNE 4, 2010 – U.S. Signal, a provider of data bandwidth capacity and Ethernet services in the Midwest, is now offering access to its metro and regional network via a new connection with CENX Inc., operator of Carrier Ethernet exchanges.

The first interconnection is at CENX’s Chicago exchange and provides carriers with seamless access to U.S. Signal’s Virtual Ethernet Services.
