Telx Launches New Internet Exchanges in New York and Dallas

NEW YORK, NY, Jun 17 (MARKET WIRE) --
North American Network Operators Group (NANOG) - Key Highlights:

-- Creates new Telx Internet Exchanges (TIE) in New York and Dallas.
-- Expands existing platform to four cities.
-- Demonstrates Telx's commitment in supporting communication and
connectivity between carriers, content providers, enterprises, and content
delivery networks.

Telx, one of the largest and fastest growing domestic interconnection
and colocation data center operators, announced today that it has
launched new Internet Exchanges in the New York and Dallas markets
offering customers a new, low-cost, single point of access method to
interconnect with multiple carriers, service and content providers,
financial exchanges, and enterprise networks.

Telx Internet Exchanges (TIEs) are neutral, privately owned and managed
packet and Internet exchanges that provide a high-performance Internet
peering platform for participants. TIE members typically reduce their
operating costs by aggregating ISPs, content providers, enterprises and
others on a single, highly available service platform so that Internet
traffic has direct access to destination networks, which eliminates the
need for transit and facilitates greater communication between networks.

Telx is solidifying peering capability in the two major, network-rich
buildings at 60 Hudson Street and 111 8th Avenue. With more than 400
service provider and enterprise customers located with Telx in these
buildings, this new international Internet Exchange gives customers highly
reliable and cost-efficient access to all of these service providers and
enterprises. Additionally, since most subsea cables either land in New
York or in nearby states and are then backhauled to New York, an
international Internet Exchange in the region provides the fastest and
most direct connection to traffic entering the U.S. from Europe.

In Dallas, a new exchange will give customers a new opportunity to
leverage peering within 2323 Bryan and the Telx facility at 8345 Stemmons
Freeway.

"Telx is fully committed to providing superior Internet Exchange points
within its facilities, and as a result have chosen to launch the next
phases of our Internet Exchanges in the New York and Dallas markets," said
Michael Lucking, Director of IP Development and Engineering for Telx.
"These two markets are currently underserved in terms of high quality
Internet Exchange points,. We intend to make New York and Dallas true
metropolitan exchanges."

The TIE platforms in New York and Dallas will be monitored around the
clock and are now accepting Ethernet connections. The new TIE service
will be fully integrated into Telx's product and service portfolio and
customers in New York and Dallas now have the ability to purchase
one-stop shopping solutions that includes space, power, and
interconnectivity between networks as well as interconnectivity to the
respective TIE platforms. Telx Internet Exchanges are built on Force 10
equipment; Force 10 is the preferred provider for the company's switching
architecture. Telx has existing TIE peering nodes in Atlanta and Phoenix.
