NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--
NTT America, a wholly owned U.S. subsidiary of NTT Communications Corporation
(NTT Com) and a Tier-1 global IP network services provider, today announced the
company`s CTO and vice president of IP development for the Global IP Network
business unit, Doug Junkins, will speak atLight Reading's Ethernet Expo Americas
2009, a premier event covering the topic of carrier Ethernet network
technologies and services in North America. As part of one of the largest
telecommunications companies in the world and a leading provider of carrier
class Ethernet, NTT America can leverage the international business, geographic,
technology and financial assets of the NTT Communications Global IP Network to
help service providers, large content providers and enterprises use carrier
Ethernet network technology to cost effectively and productively deploy next
generation services and applications to support growth and additional revenue
opportunities. Mr. Junkins will speak at the event on November 4, 2009 at 9 a.m.

Today, Mr. Junkins was named CTO of NTT America. In this role he is responsible
for the company`s technology procurement strategy and vendor selection, industry
relations and standardization efforts, and overall product portfolio
coordination across both the Global IP Network and Enterprise Solutions business
units of NTT America.

During Ethernet Expo Americas 2009, Mr. Junkins will offer his perspective on
next-gen Ethernet wholesale and retail services: abundant bandwidth, abundant
choice. With years of experience in network architecture, tool development and
peering relations, Mr. Junkins will offer his expertise on how abundant
bandwidth and abundant choice offered by next-gen carrier Ethernet is
transforming the data communications landscape, unleashing business
productivity, and helping enterprises become more flexible in dealing with
today`s on-demand business challenges. He will discuss the latest trends related
to: 1) expanding geographical reach and coverage density; 2) providing new
connectivity and access options; 3) delivering solutions tailored for different
industry verticals; and 4) inter-carrier cooperation to drive Ethernet to more
locations and ensure reliable end-to-end service performance.

As new subsea cables reach out to create diverse paths and connect underserved
areas of the world, and WiMAX services, Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) deployments and
national broadband plans provide increased options for connectivity, more people
and businesses are coming online and are demanding high broadband connections
for rich media consumption. By shaping bandwidth up to 10Gbps, delivering over
Fast, Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet, even Layer2 VPN, and provisioning any
number of 10GigE ports in a matter of days, NTT America provides flexible and
fast dedicated access to the global Internet for service providers and
enterprises, allowing them to control network communications costs, consolidate
services onto a common infrastructure, and enable more tailored services for
consumers. (Note: To view the NTT Communications Global IP Network, visit:
