Provider Market Nationally Pac-West Telecomm, Inc. (Nasdaq:PACW), a
leading provider of traditional and next-generation voice
communications services, today announced the availability of its
East Coast SuperPOP to support its nationwide expansion plan. The
first phase of expansion will enable service providers to provide
communications services to more than 50% of the U.S. population in
2006. Pac-West is leveraging Switch and Data's comprehensive
marketplace of providers in the New York Metropolitan Area to take
advantage of the density of networks and existing VoIP service
providers. "The deployment of our East Coast SuperPOP is a key
milestone in our network expansion plan," commented Hank Carabelli,
Pac-West's President and CEO. "Working with best in class partners
is critical for maintaining our reputation as one of the highest
quality, nationwide infrastructure providers." Pac-West's
nationwide expansion will serve the needs of VoIP Providers,
Wireless Broadband Providers, Internet Service Providers, Carriers
and other Next-Generation Service Providers. Pac-West is expanding
its coverage area and service offerings to create one of the most
comprehensive, single source solutions available for bridging
traditional circuit-switched and next-generation IP-based services.
"We are ecstatic about having earned the right to be a critical
component of Pac-West's SuperPOP network," stated Keith Olsen,
President and CEO at Switch and Data. "We are also confident that
Pac-West's decision to do business in our facilities can only add
additional momentum to our VoIP marketplace." Switch and Data's 60
Hudson data center was chosen after a rigorous evaluation process
by Pac-West. The decision was based on Switch and Data's
reliability and infrastructure, high density of carriers (VoIP
providers, ISPs, carriers, wireless providers and broadband
providers), and their technical resource competencies. In addition,
Switch and Data's national footprint of 34 data centers in 23
markets allows Pac-West to efficiently continue its expansion with
one provider with a nationwide, experienced on-site technical team.
