OCTOBER 6, 2008 -- Tiscali International Network (TINet), a carrier dedicated exclusively to the wholesale IP-MPLS market, has chosen Hibernia Atlantic's (search for Hibernia Atlantic) TransAtlantic submarine and terrestrial cable network to deliver numerous 10-Gbit/sec wavelengths of capacity to and from Montreal, Dublin, London, Frankfurt, New York City, Ashburn, Chicago, and other major metro areas across North America and Europe.
TINet says it is one of the first companies worldwide to have a truly global multi-service carrier network in actual production that implements a full suite of service-enabling protocols, including MPLS CoS, IPv6, Ethernet private lines, and multicasting. Hibernia Atlantic operates the only undersea cable that crosses directly from Ireland to Canada and the U.S., thereby avoiding any one single point of failure, landing point, and backhaul route, such as in and around New York and London. By partnering with Hibernia Atlantic, TINet says it will continue to offer quality class of service products and next-generation opportunities to European and North American customers with greater capacity, access, and resiliency.
"The TINet backbone requires diversity and reliability for the traffic we carry around the world," explains Maurizio Binello, COO for Tiscali International Network. "Hibernia offers a physically diverse and redundant cable connection to Europe and North America, which is flexible enough to grow and support our customers' increasing bandwidth and security demands. We look forward to continuing to invest in our network capacity globally and to continue to provide this high quality of service to our customers," he says.
"It's fantastic to see such incredible growth in the IP marketplace," adds Eric Gutshall, executive vice president of sales and marketing for Hibernia Atlantic. "Hibernia is honored to provide wavelength services to our friends at Tiscali. TINet is a progressive company with proven professionals; working with them feels like we are working with an extension of our own organization. We support Tiscali with diverse builds, secure designs, and other TransAtlantic submarine cables to protect their substantial growth. We continue to package new ideas and solutions, including multiple private cables. We are excited to grow with TINet and consider them a valued global partner."
