GCX partners with CMC Telecom to boost connectivity in Southeast Asia

Mumbai, Dec 12 (IANS) Global Cloud Xchange (GCX) and CMC Telecom on Tuesday announced a dual strategic initiative, wherein GCX will offer its IP Transit solutions to CMC Telecom in Hong Kong and Singapore, while CMC Telecom will deploy a Virtual Point of Presence (vPoP) for GCX in Hanoi.

This strategic arrangement will enable GCX to expand its network reach in Indochina and leverage CMC Telecom's network to deliver low-latency and secure connectivity solutions for its customers. CMC Telecom, in turn, will get access to GCX's high-performance IP Transit global network, a company statement said here.

"Southeast Asia is a key growth market for GCX, and building our presence in Vietnam fills an important gap in that strategy. We are very pleased to have CMC Telecom as our partner, with its nimbleness and customer-focused attitude," said Fabrizio Civitarese, President of Asia Pacific, GCX.

Dang Tung Son, Deputy CEO, CMC Telecom, said: "GCX will be an important partner to support CMC Telecom's goal to become a key regional provider."

Combining GCX's global sub-sea cable and terrestrial networks with CMC Telecom in its local market will provide enhanced coverage and diversity options to many organisations, the statement added.
