Windstream Wholesale has announced a strategic partnership with Cirion Technologies to enhance domestic wavelength services from the Myrtle Beach Cable Landing Station (CLS) to key nodes within their US network.
This collaboration highlights the growing demand for Windstream’s Intelligent Converged Optical Network (ICON), renowned for its cutting-edge connectivity solutions and its pivotal role in advancing global network capabilities.
Cirion Technologies, a provider of high-performance connectivity solutions to over 5,500 Latin American and multinational customers, offers a comprehensive suite of services including colocation, cloud infrastructure, and a strong terrestrial and subsea fiber network.
This partnership is integral to the Windstream Wholesale Beach Route initiative, as it focuses on delivering adaptable lit and dark fiber solutions through diverse connectivity options to subsea cables along the East Coast. This strategic route enables international clients to leverage innovative U.S. gateway options, ensuring flexible global network connectivity.
Windstream Wholesale is poised to meet increasing demand for high-capacity lit connections to subsea cables, such as Firmina, a cable connecting Myrtle Beach with countries in South America, and Nuvem, a connection from Myrtle Beach to Bermuda and Portugal.
As an anchor customer, Cirion Technologies is expanding its network capabilities by securing connectivity from Myrtle Beach to their landing station in Hollywood, Florida.
“This strategic partnership with Cirion Technologies illustrates our commitment to providing cutting-edge connectivity solutions that empower our customers with unparalleled options,” said Joe Scattareggia, President of Windstream Wholesale.
“We are thrilled to provide over six terabits of initial capacity to Cirion, and we look forward to supporting their network expansion goals with our reliable infrastructure.”
“The activation of services at the Myrtle Beach CLS represents a significant milestone in our collaboration with Windstream Wholesale,” said Federico La Volpe, Sr. Director, Network Architecture and Development at Cirion Technologies. “These connections between our U.S. locations and the Myrtle Beach site will enhance our network capabilities and support our mission to deliver exceptional service to our customers.”
