Alpheus Communications, a leading provider of Texas metro-regional fiber and networking solutions, today announced that it has become a key Ethernet provider to AireSpring as the company expands its award-winning MPLS and Ethernet solutions throughout Texas.

AireSpring’s MPLS Mesh^TM product allows customers to combine multiple MPLS networks with a single SLA, single bill and single point of contact. Greater flexibility and increased cost savings across a fully managed network implementation are the hallmarks of AireSpring MPLS.

“AireSpring is pleased to have Alpheus as a strategic partner in our initiative to broaden services into Texas,” said David Lonstein, executive vice president, product management for AireSpring. “We found Alpheus’ deep knowledge of the Texas telecommunications market attractive, as well as their impressive network coverage and connections to a significant number of central offices, which we view as a distinct advantage in our efforts to reach the maximum customers in Texas.”

With more than 120 central offices providing Ethernet service capability, Alpheus offers AireSpring a more ubiquitous coverage area for its Texas footprint. Alpheus has significant fiber infrastructure and multiple access options to deliver reliable, high-bandwidth Ethernet services that ensure the highest degree of network performance while supporting carrier customers’ mission-critical telecommunication needs.

“Alpheus owns and manages its entire Texas long-haul network, which is designed to provide carriers diverse service options and control over the last-mile,” said Chip Robertson, senior vice president of carrier sales for Alpheus Communications. “We are pleased to offer AireSpring our wide array of Ethernet services as they complete their Texas initiative, and we are eager to begin deploying network interfaces with AireSpring.”
