HERNDON, VA–(Marketwire – 03/17/11) – XO Communications (OTC.BB:XOHO – News) today announced that IPNETZONE COMMUNICATIONS, INC. will take advantage of XO Communications’ nationwide Ethernet access network to extend its service capabilities to more business locations and expand its MPLS Exchange Platform (MEP).
Based in New York, IPNETZONE specializes in private-line, metro Ethernet and multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) solutions that can be deployed through its innovative MEP fabric. The IPNETZONE MEP is the world’s first global MPLS Exchange Platform that allows for the construction of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) networks across multiple carriers, thus enabling seamless and immediate connectivity to global markets and facilities.
IPNETZONE currently uses XO Communications as its primary network services provider to connect data centers and provide network access solutions across the country.

The agreement enables IPNETZONE to offer Ethernet access solutions to millions of business locations in support of their customers’ MPLS-based wide area networking needs.
“Based on our long-standing relationship with XO Communications and their deployment of over 400 Ethernet over copper-enabled local service offices, we see this as the next logical step in building a stronger relationship between the companies,” said Anthony Hidalgo, chief operating officer of IPNETZONE. “With the growing demand for IP-based services from multi-location customers, it was clear that XO’s nationwide Ethernet network footprint and our MEP would create a greater benefit for our customers.”
