Content companies require these types of connections as they grow to move data from location to location. BandCon's network solution enables servers to communicate across the country, creates redundancy, expands network access to ISP's and allows for a larger peering initiative. BandCon has tapped Level 3 Communications as the primary provider for underlying wavelength services for the new Content Delivery System.
"We are very pleased to be the underlying provider for BandCon's new service," said Jeff Tench, senior vice president of offer management for Level 3's Content Markets Group. "This agreement underscores Level 3's commitment to providing scalable solutions to companies like BandCon."
