Research Triangle Park, September 13, 2010 – Overture Networks, the industry's trusted Carrier Ethernet solutions provider, today announced that Veroxity Technology Partners, LLC, a premier service provider headquartered in Westford, MA, is using Overture Networks' award-winning ISG 6000 Carrier Ethernet aggregation solution to fulfill the promise of delivering its Any-to-Any Ethernet services to "any building anywhere."

Overture Networks' ISG 6000 enables service providers like Veroxity to deliver high-value Ethernet and IP services to all of a service provider's business customer locations. With breakthrough densities, service-based forwarding and sophisticated quality-of-service, Overture's ISG 6000 Carrier Ethernet service aggregator efficiently consolidates all service traffic for handoff to the IP/MPLS core, improves inter-office capacity engineering, and greatly reduces power consumption in the central office or co-location facility.

With an extensive and resilient fiber-based network in the Northeastern U.S., Veroxity sought a solution for reaching customer locations that were not currently served by fiber. With the ISG 6000 in place in their central offices, Veroxity can now offer its Any-to-Any Ethernet and VPLS services to its customer locations that can only be reached using existing T1 and DS3 circuits.

"We recognized Overture Networks to be a leader in Carrier Ethernet edge and aggregation because of their focus on giving service providers like us the means to offer premium services to any location, regardless of the access media required to reach our customers," said Jim Capuano, Chief Operating Officer, at Veroxity, a company currently in the process of a merger. "We take great care in evaluating every alternative in order to provide the best possible product for our customers and interconnect merging networks with the greatest ease. We selected the Overture ISG 6000 as our aggregation solution because of its carrier class feature set and Overture Networks' strong customer support."

"We have been impressed with Veroxity's commitment to delivering protocol-agnostic Ethernet and VPLS services to their customers no matter where they are located," said Jeff Reedy, CEO of Overture Networks. "We are pleased to partner with them to help deliver on that mission."
