April 25, 2006 Dallas, TX -- Time Warner Telecom, a provider of managed voice and data networking services for businesses, has expanded its 180-mile Dallas fiber network into Frisco, one of the fastest growing cities in North Texas.
"This network extension also connects Frisco businesses to our 800-mile fiber ring that runs between Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, and Houston, as well as to our national network of 20,000 route miles of fiber and 10-Gbit/sec IP backbone," says John Schuchart, Time Warner Telecom's vice president and general manager in Dallas.
Time Warner Telecom says it extends its local networks into suburban office parks and downtown commercial areas to meet customer demand for an alternative fiber facilities-based choice for communications services. The provider's SONET network in the Dallas area is similar to its 43 other networks across the country, which deliver business-class voice and data services, both locally and nationally.
"Customer demand typically includes the need for business continuity, diverse routing, data storage, metro Ethernet, and a variety of next generation services that only fiber, facilities-based carriers, like Time Warner Telecom and larger incumbents, can offer," concludes Schuchart.
