UFINET has developed a large fiber optic network in Spain and Latin America over the past four years, connecting countries by multiple protection rings and deploying a large metropolitan network in major cities such as Madrid, Barcelona, Sevilla, Bogota, Panama City, San Jose, Managua, San Salvador and Guatemala City among others.

“In our process of expansion and adaption to our customer’s business requirements, UFINET detected a rising need to provide redundancy in the usual routes connecting Latin America with the United States,” said F. Javier Lacasa, EVP of UFINET.  “Our new point of presence with CoreSite in Los Angeles enables us to offer our customers a range of geographically dispersed connectivity by adding coverage on the Pacific coast.”

“CoreSite’s Los Angeles campus has a rich customer ecosystem, including networks, cloud and IT service providers, as well as a variety of entertainment companies, digital content providers and CDNs,“ said Brian Warren, SVP of Marketing and Product at CoreSite.  “Adding UFINET to our LA campus provides our customers with valuable access to strategic markets.”
